Families across Cheshire West and Chester can look forward to more affordable adventures this summer, with free bus travel for children throughout August helping families explore more of the borough for less.
As part of the Government's Summer Bus Fare Offer, under the Great British Summer Savings initiative, all children aged 5 to 15 can travel for free on participating local bus services from 1 to 31 August 2026. There’s no need to register and no cost to families – simply hop on board and enjoy unlimited journeys throughout the month.
The Council’s itravel routes, which provide on-demand transport to rural communities, will be included in the scheme. In addition, Cheshire West and Chester Council is funding free travel for eligible children on its Park & Ride services through Bus Service Improvement Plan (BSIP) funding, giving families even more opportunities to travel affordably.
