Get to college and Sixth Form with a travel pass through the Staffordshire County Council Post 16 Partnership Scheme.

 Save money! 
Your travel pass will probably save you money - for example to travel from Rugeley to Stafford by an Arriva bus could cost you £931 a year your cost through the scheme is £290 - a saving of around £641 a year!

  Help save the environment!
The popularity of the car has led to a massive increase
in traffic congestion, pollution and noise. Car journeys represent 15% of the UK's total CO2 emissions - travelling by public transport can drastically reduce this. Going by bus rather than by car reduces your CO2 emissions for the journey by about half.# 

 More freedom for you!
Some public bus service passes can be used 24 hours
a day, 7 days a week, not just to school and college or back - you can use it to go shopping, or go out with
your friends in the evenings and at weekends too. Let the driver do the work and you can just sit down and relax - maybe read a book or listen to some music. And the added bonus is the walk to and from the bus stop
or train station will help keep you fit and healthy.
