Rejected petition Free public transport for all under 18s
More details
Public transport costs are a huge concern for families with young children as well as for young people attending school or college. The high fares are acting as a barrier to participation in higher education and work and hampering social mobility as a result. This petition calls upon the Government to introduce completely free public transport for all under 18s at all hours.
