Bus Passes (free from April 1st 2006)

Some senior citizens are not aware that a concessionary travel scheme is operated by New Forest District Council for the over 60s.

Both men and women are eligible at this age!

This scheme enables card holders to travel on buses at half the normal fare but from April 1st it will be completely free to travel on buses and the Hythe Ferry. Disabled people can apply for taxi vouchers to the value of £40.00.

A passport sized photograph is required, this to be returned with the application form. Application forms can be obtained either from the New Forest District Council office at St. Johns Road, Hythe, or from myself on telephone 023 8066 7095.
