Yet another piece of bad news for commuters. Passengers face above-inflation price hikes for rail tickets from January, train companies have announced.

Regulated fares, which include season tickets, are determined by the Department for Transport and account for 40% of tickets sold.

Most train companies will raise fares by 4.3% - 1% above inflation - when the new prices are introduced, while the Southeastern trains service between Kent and London will go up by 6.3% under the terms of its new franchise.

Compare this with the fact that parking that has actually fallen in some areas of London and the UK by up to an average 15%.
