National Concessionary Travel

Senior Citizen and Disabled Bus Passes available from Local Councils

National Concessionary Pass holders are entitled to free travel on our buses, but there are certain time restrictions as follows:

Validity of National Concessionary Passes in West Sussex and Kent, free travel in these areas is from 9.30am for all concessionary pass holders (including residents who have previously been able to travel from 9am), except for those in West Sussex who possess a disabled card (denoted by an orange stripe on the right of the card), who can travel free on journeys commencing in their home area at any time (including with a companion who possesses their own card).

Administration of schemes is now done by county councils rather than district:
East Sussex – Rother, Wealden, Lewes, Hastings, Eastbourne
Kent – Kent County Council only
Brighton & Hove – Brighton & Hove city council only (more details)
West Sussex – Adur, Arun, Crawley, Horsham, Mid-Sussex, Chichester, Worthing

Residents of Brighton & Hove and East Sussex can still travel from 9am for journeys starting in their home area (additionally Brighton & Hove residents can also board between 11pm and 4am Monday to Friday). Visitors from outside their home area continue to have free travel throughout England from 9.30am Monday to Friday. There are no time restrictions for any passes at weekends and on Bank Holidays.

Christmas & New Year Holidays
On days when bus services are operating Saturday services on a normal Monday to Friday the standard conditions apply, i.e. if it is a Monday you can only travel after 9am/9.30am not all day as if it was a Saturday.
