Bus Passes
Where can I use my Concessionary Pass?
Free travel will be available to NoWcard holders on local bus journeys anywhere in England between 9.30am - 11.00pm weekdays and all day Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays.
Travel before 9.30am and after 11.00pm will be at the full fare unless your local authority has made arrangements for an additional concession within your local area. Please see www.nowcard.org for details of any additional consessions available in your area.
When boarding a bus in the NoWcard area (Lancashire and Cumbria) you should place your pass on the card reader
beside the driver and state your destination. You will be issued with a ticket, which will show your journey.
On buses that do not have a card reader you will need to show your pass to the driver and state your destination. On buses outside the NoWcard area (Lancashire and Cumbria) there may be different ways of recording your journey, therefore you should show your pass to the driver and they will assist you further.
To find out more about bus services in any part of the North West or nationwide telephone Traveline on 0871 200 22 33 (calls cost 10p per minute from BT landlines charges from other providers or mobiles may vary) lines are open 7 days per week from 8.00am to 8.00pm.
