Catch the Bus Month

September is Catch the bus Month, and we are on a mission to bring people together through accessible, inclusive transport. This September there are more reasons than ever to get on board! 

Buses are not only one of the greenest ways to travel, reducing pollution and congestion, but they also promote social inclusion by connecting people to work, education, health, friends and family, improving lives and opportunities. 

At Metrobus, we’ve been working to make bus travel more accessible, convenient and affordable with a range of fare discounts. For example, students can save up to 25%, while young people can travel affordably with the16-20 Bus Saver, a scheme developed in partnership with West Sussex County Council as part of their Bus Service Improvement Plan (BSIP). And as well as saving on travel, your bus ticket also offers discounted entry at lots of local attractions including Wakehurst, Spa Valley Railway and Brighton Pavilion. 

And if you haven’t seen it yet, we are hosting a Depot Open Day on 6th September, where you will have the chance to go behind the scenes of a working bus depot, see our one-of-a-kind hydrogen refuelling station and take a bus wash tour! 

We will also be hosting a pull-a-bus competition! That’s right, you can get a team of 10 together and try your hand at pulling a bus. Entries are still open and full details can be found here. 

Get on board this Catch the Bus Month and experience everything bus travel has to offer.
