The £2 cap on single bus fares is set to be extended in the Harrogate district until October 31.
The government announced an extra £300 million funding for the scheme today.
From November, the cap will rise to £2.50 for another 12 months.
A list of bus companies and routes in Yorkshire and the Humber taking part in the initiative is available here.
The scheme, which was introduced in January, was due to end in June.
Ministers at the Department for Transport said the extension will help people with the cost of living.
It means bus companies in Harrogate look set to continue the £2 cap on single fares.

A spokesman for Transdev, which runs Harrogate Bus Company, said:
“We wish to participate in the extended arrangements announced today, and will confirm further details with our customers and colleagues shortly.”
DalesBus also confirmed it would participate in the scheme.
Meanwhile, Mark Harper, transport secretary, said:
“Taking the bus is the most popular form of public transport and millions of people rely on these vital services every day.
“That’s why we’re investing half a billion pounds to help people save money amid cost of living pressures and continue to level up transport in all parts of the country, doing our bit to help halve inflation and grow the economy.”
