No Pass? Sorry, you'll need to pay full adult fare!
In September 2003, Travel South Yorkshire launched a campaign to ensure that all young people aged 11-18 show a valid travel pass when travelling at the concessionary rate.
We're sorry, but without a valid MegaTravel pass or Travel Pass our drivers won't be able to issue a ticket at the concessionary rate and you'll need to pay the full adult fare.
