Fears over Freedom Pass Changes
With planned changes to the Kent Freedom Pass to be discussed by KCC on 13-12-13, there are a number of questions that need to be answered. The changes, which would be reviewed after a period of six months, would result in the introduction of a smartcard scheme for students between the ages of 11 and 19, with 11-16 year olds receiving £350 worth of bus travel for £100 and 16-19 year olds receiving £250 worth of bus travel for £100. The current scheme offers free unlimited travel to 11-16 year olds for £100 and a recent campaign has called for this to be extended to 16-19 year olds.
