Completed petition Reduced Fares on Public Transport for Passengers under 18

We the undersigned call on the National Assembly to urge the Welsh Government to require reduced fares for public transport passengers aged under eighteen years.

More details

The age for child rate fares is currently 14 and this probably goes back to when that was the school leaving age. This measure would be fairer since even if children start working at 16 they rarely earn enough to warrant paying full fare. It would also encourage more use of public transport.
