A fantastic offer is available limited only for 16-19 year-old full-time students who attend any one of these Southampton colleges or Sixth Forms: Academy of Music and Sound Southampton, Bitterne Park Secondary (Sixth Form only), City College, Itchen College, King Edward VI School (Sixth Form only), Richard Taunton College or St Anne’s Catholic School (Sixth Form only).
If you are eligible, you can save at least 20% on your bus travel. Over the course of a year you can save £75 on the standard Bluestar 3-month tickets and £105 on the First Buses. There is an added bonus that the discounted price for each term ticket actually gives you a longer period of validity than a standard three-month ticket.
Southampton City Council, Bluestar, Uni Link, First Buses and your college have teamed up to introduce this special discounted bus pass that will give you unlimited travel all over the city. Below are details of prices for each term including the price for the wider Hampshire pass if you are travelling from outside the city.
