Commitment
Cut public transport fares for adults, young people and children
What this means
- The Green Party made this promise in its November 2024 general election manifesto. It has not yet been delivered.[source]
- The commitment covers public transport fares across different age groups, aiming to make buses and trains cheaper for most passengers.[source]
- Adult fares would be cut by 20%, meaning a typical journey would cost noticeably less than it does today.[source]
- Young people would see a 60% reduction in fares, making public transport much more affordable for that age group.[source]
- Children under nine would travel free, removing the cost barrier entirely for young families using public transport.[source]
- This is a transport policy promise from the Green Party. Voters can use it to hold the party to account if it enters government.[source]
