Under 22s in Perth and Kinross benefit from new free bus travel scheme
09.02.2022 - 19:59 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Perth and Kinross youngsters have this week been enjoying free bus travel.
On Monday, January 31 a scheme offering free bus travel to anyone under 22 opened in Scotland.
Youngsters aged five to 21 can now apply for a national entitlement card giving them free bus and coach travel throughout Scotland.
Children under the age of five could already travel for free and do not need a card.
Kinross-shire SNP councillor Richard Watters made sure to join his 20-year-old daughter Abi as she took the electric Ember bus from Kinross to Edinburgh.
He said: “She’s a frequent traveller on the bus and takes it to Edinburgh a few times a week. It’s really handy as well as you can take your bike on it and she can cycle round Edinburgh. She is delighted.”
Meanwhile in Perth, City Centre SNP councillor Andrew Parrott was with Perth resident and former Member of the Scottish Youth Parliament Liam Fowley.
Cllr Parrott said: “Young people will be greatly assisted by this new offer which will make access to education, employment and leisure much more affordable for many.”
Liam said: “This is a great opportunity for younger people to reduce their travel costs and contribute to making more use of greener methods of travel.
“It really is welcome to see the Scottish Government investing in services for younger citizens like this.”
Anyone looking to apply for a card can apply at the following website: https://getyournec.scot/nec/
