Summary
Scotland’s free bus travel for under-22s has hit 300 million journeys, a major win for young people and the economy. Expanded in 2022, the program helps students, job seekers, and families save money while boosting mobility and sustainability. Transport Secretary Stephen Flynn praised the initiative as a vital lifeline during the cost-of-living crisis. Alongside permanent ScotRail peak fare removal, these moves signal a broader push to make transport affordable and accessible for all.
