Young people to get 拢1 bus fares across Wales
by Lola Mayor, September 6, 2025
"Young people will be able to access 拢1 single tickets for buses across Wales as part of a pilot scheme around cheaper fares.
"From Monday, single fares will cost 拢1 and a full day pass will cost 拢3 for those aged 16-21, which will later be extended to five to 15-year-olds from 3 November.
MPs in England have been calling for free travel for young people, while Scotland has had free bus travel for those aged five to 21 since 2022.
"Welsh government Transport Minister Ken Skates said he hoped the scheme would help young people 'access education, training, employment, and leisure'.
"Eligible passenger and Cardiff student Ifan Stoddart, 20, said he did not use the bus at the moment, but the 拢1 fare may encourage him to do so.
"He said it was hugely important to keep public transport costs as low as possible, to encourage people to get to and from school and work easily.
"Holly Whale, 20, from Exeter, goes to university in Cardiff and said she mainly walked around the city, but believed the reduced fares would enable more opportunities for young people.
" 'A lot of young people cannot afford to drive,' said Holly, adding that 'trains are really expensive'.
"Both students agreed it would make them think twice about booking a taxi."
