Medway Council - Update on Changes to The Older and Disabled Residents Bus Pass




















An opportunity which allowed free bus travel in Medway before 9:00am during the Coronavirus pandemic will come to an end later this week.

Medway Council offered disabled and older people the chance to use their pass for free travel before 9:00am to enable them to make an earlier essential journey, such as food shopping.

Residents who have passes will continue to be able to travel for free on buses after 9:00am when the scheme comes to an end on Sunday, 7th March.

The changeover will come into place on Monday, 8th March when school pupils return to the classroom, and passes will only be able to be used from 9:00am Monday to Friday and at all times at weekends and on bank holidays.

Medway Council has a statutory duty to provide passes for free bus travel throughout England for older and disabled people under the English National Concessionary Travel Scheme (ENCTS).

More than 34,000 Medway residents have a bus pass including 30,000 for older people and 4,000 for disabled people.
