MP URGES RESIDENTS TO SIGN UP FOR FREE NATIONAL BUS TRAVEL

Local MP Mike Hall wants everyone over the age of 60 or disabled to sign up for free bus travel in time for 1 April.

On 1 April 2008, everyone who is disabled or over the age of 60 will be entitled to free off-peak bus travel anywhere in the country.

Mike Hall MP said:-

“The Labour Government has listened to what older and disabled people want, and is extending free bus travel to those of 60 and those who are disabled in every area of the country.

“This means that pass-holders visiting Weaver Vale can use our buses too, and that people from Weaver Vale can use their pass if they are visiting relatives or on holiday in other areas of the country.

“I want to make sure that everyone in Weaver Vale who is eligible gets their new bus pass."

If you are over 60 or registered disabled, and want to find out how to get your new bus pass, please contact your local Council.
