ALT Quote from Transport Secretary Fiona Hyslop: This scheme will give the same opportunities as free bus travel provides for many children and young people in mainland communities, and, was a key commitment in the transport budget for 2025-26.
📢The bus pass has made it easier for me to travel around. I am a young carer so any free time I have I like to be able to get out with my friends.
We continually hear from young people about the impact the scheme has on their lives by providing access to opportunities & more.
Over 200 million free bus journeys have now been made by under 22s across Scotland.
No one can be left behind as we move to decarbonise Scotland’s transport network – we want to hear your views.
