The £1 single fare and £3 day tickets are available to 5 to 21-year-olds with a mytravelpass, for use on bus services across Wales and some cross-border routes.

Over 9 million journeys have been made since the start of the scheme and over 38,000 mytravelpass cards have been issued to 16-21 year olds.

The scheme was introduced in September 2025 for 16 to 21-year-olds. It was extended to 5 to 15-year-olds in November 2025.

It has now been extended again, for all eligible age groups, until March 2027.

The extension comes as the new school and college term begins.

The Deputy Minister for Transport, Mark Hooper, said: "This scheme is making a real difference to the day-to-day lives of young people across Wales, allowing them to make affordable journeys for work, education and leisure.

"Reaching over 9 million journeys demonstrates the scale of its impact. Extending the scheme to March 2027 will allow more young people to benefit from affordable travel."

Ticket prices:

  • Single: £1.00
  • Day ticket: £3.00 (unlimited travel on participating bus services)

16 to 21-year-olds need a valid mytravelpass to buy discounted tickets. The mytravelpass must be shown to the driver when boarding the bus or purchasing a ticket.

Tickets are available for journeys that start or end in Wales. On cross-border services, the ticket is valid up to and from the first bus stop in England, or to the end of the route on some services.
