Lib Dems welcome free buses for kids over holidays

Bath & North East Somerset Lib Dems welcome the return of the “Kids Go Free” scheme over the Christmas and New Year holidays.

Councillor Kevin Guy, Leader of B&NES Council joined West of England Combined Authority Mayor Helen Godwin for the launch of the scheme in the heart of festive Bath.

From Saturday 20 December to Sunday 4 January (inclusive), under 16’s can just hop on board almost all buses in the region for free, with no need to do anything in advance.

There’s also no need to be accompanied by a fare-paying adult, so if teenagers want to travel with their friends, or grandparents with bus passes are taking the grandchildren for a day out, it’s absolutely free!

Make the most of what our region has to offer at this special time of year.
