Get Your Free Tiger Bus Pass Today – Mayor's £1 Fares for Under 25s in Cambridgeshire & Peterborough

The Combined Authority has launched the Tiger bus pass, offering bus fares for just £1 for those under 25.

The new Tiger bus pass is free of charge and designed to make public transport more affordable for young people, helping them travel to school, college, training, work, shopping, and social activities. This initiative is part of a broader effort by the Combined Authority to revamp public transport in the region.

Message from the Mayor

“When I became Mayor, I promised permanent reduced fares for young people as a fixture in our transport network. I know this is making a difference for young people across our region.
For many, it’s not just a ticket to school or work, but a way to see friends, take part in sport and leisure, and live life without worrying about the cost of travel.
I’m proud to have worked with Board members and officers to bring forward a plan that secures the pass until March 2027, and I’m committed to working with them on options post March, to build a sustainable, long-term plan for the future.”

 

Don’t miss out on this fantastic opportunity to save on travel.
