Go-Ahead

Our Corporate Responsibility

Affordability for people on low incomes

Our responsibility is to help as many people as possible to use our services.
 

Public transport should be a viable travel option for everyone, even in difficult economic times. The economic downturn has increased financial pressure on many people and made it more important than ever to keep our services affordable.

All our companies offer schemes that reduce fares for particular groups, including those who buy online, and to companies if colleagues club together and buy tickets in bulk.

Last year, the government introduced free bus travel in England for those over 60. We have been working closely with the local councils in our regions to implement this scheme.

It is important that we work with other stakeholders in our regions, including local authorities, colleges, hospitals and major employers, to identify and target those groups that benefit the most from discounted fares.
