Free bus pass: Young people now eligible for travel benefit – but only in Scotland | Personal Finance | Finance
As it is included with the NEC, the bus pass will be in the form of a smart card so bus users will only need to tap their pass on the electronic reader to get free travel.
Anyone over the age of 11 can choose to apply for the Young Scot NEC, which alongside the travel card can be used to save money on various discounts.
Graeme Dey, the Scottish Government’s Minister for Transport, outlined why young people across the region should jump at the chance to secure this “freebie” benefit.
Mr Day said: “I’m delighted that the under-22s free bus travel scheme will go live as planned on January 31, with applications open now for children and young people to get their new or replacement national entitlement card (NEC) or Young Scot NEC.
