Kent County Council teenager bus pass

The Issue

A controversial decision to raise the cost of the Kent Travel Saver bus pass by 21% for the next academic school year has been upheld.

Kent County Council’s (KCC) transport committee met last Friday (Feb 18) to review the above-inflation rise from £370 to £450 from June 2022.

The Kent Travel Saver provides secondary school students, who are aged from 11 to 16, discounted travel on buses from 6am to 7pm on weekdays. There are around 14,000 pass holders, excluding Medway.
