Free Bus Travel
Written by Sophie Abbott , S3
All young people and children aged 5-21 years can apply for a card to access the Young Persons ’ ( Under 22s ) Free Bus Travel Scheme , which began on the 31st January .
You will need a National Entitlement Card ( NEC ) or Young Scot NEC with the valid free travel entitlement with you whenever you want to take the bus – otherwise you ’ ll have to pay for your trip .
If you ’ re aged between 16 and 21 and you already have an active NEC or Young Scot NEC issued prior to applications opening on 10 January 2022 , you can download free bus travel onto your existing card using the Transport Scot Pass Collect app . This means you may not need to apply for a new card to access your free bus travel .
