Children & under 19s fares

We’ve brought Cornwall’s bus companies together to improve your travel experience.

Tickets work on any bus, any route

You can now use your ticket (see below) on any bus with any operator*, making journeys cheaper, easier and more convenient.

Thanks to £23.5m of government funding for the country’s first Bus Fares Pilot (BFP), that temporarily reduces fares to encourage people to travel more often, making them great value. 

* Excludes Truro Park & Ride and privately contracted coaches/buses.

Fair fares for under 19s

Everyone under 19 can travel for a discounted price. Simply bring your photo ID as you may be asked to verify your age. Under 5s travel for free.
