New style Concessionary Bus Pass from 1 January 2020

Tuesday, 10 September 2019

You'll be able to apply for your new-style Concessionary Travel Cards, which replaces your current bus pass, from Wednesday 11 September 2019.

All current green coloured bus passes will still be accepted and are valid until 31 December 2019. 

Residents are advised not to panic but to apply for their new-style card in plenty of time before the end of the year to ensure they can continue to receive the benefits of concessionary travel. The old-style cards will not be recognised by electronic readers on buses after 31 December 2019.

The new-style cards offer the same free travel rights and benefits as the current cards. The new cards are designed so that they can work as part of an integrated travel network in the future.  

If you need to request a paper application, please call 0300 303 4240.
