From 1st April 2008
Standard English National Concession - Free local bus journeys anywhere in England between 09.30am and 11.00pm weekdays and all day Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays. Journeys made before 09.30am will be charged at the full adult fare.
Additionally
Carlisle City NoWcard holders travel free weekdays before 0930 and after 2300 on local bus journeys within or starting within Carlisle.
What is a local bus service? - A local bus service would include
any type of town bus service; a rural service which observes all bus stops and
interurban services observing all bus stops and which may include a limited
stop section of route where the distance between stops is within 15 miles (21.4
kms).
Services which observe stops over 15 miles (21.4 kms) apart are regarded as
"Express services", for example National Express or Megabus.com services,
and are therefore excluded from the English National Concession scheme. Some
operators choose to offer a concession please contact the bus operator for further
details.
