Concessionary Travel Scheme

National free travel scheme

From 6 April 2010 there will be a change in the age at which people qualify for a concessionary travel pass. The change is linked to the state pension age for men and women to 65, with information about eligibility available on the Direct Gov State Pension and Concessionary Fares calculator. (External site)

People who qualify on grounds of disability will not be affected by this change. Please use the following links for more information about the Concessionary Travel Scheme:

Please note that anyone caught using a travel permit in a fraudulent manner may be excluded from the scheme.
