Why apply for a concessionary bus pass?

A concessionary bus pass gives eligible residents free bus travel across England between 9:30am and 11pm Monday to Friday, and all day at weekends and on bank holidays.

Thousands are already saving. Could you be too?

If you use the bus just a couple times a week, you could say over £600 a year.*

Did you know?

35% of concessionary bus pass users agree that getting the bus helps them feel connected to their local community.

Whether you're visiting friends, going shopping, attending appointments or enjoying a day out, your bus pass can help you travel for free.
