New bus passes
You cannot apply for a new bus pass at this time.

Using your bus pass during coronavirus
Transport Scotland is working with bus companies so you can still make essential travel. Up to 30 June 2020, the driver should still allow you to travel if you've:
- not been able to get a replacement for a lost, stolen or broken bus pass because of coronavirus
- not been able to renew a bus pass because of coronavirus
- a valid card which does not register on the ticket machine
Explain your situation to the bus driver.
Further enquiries during coronavirus
You need to contact your local council for questions about bus pass applications.
You can find more information about bus passes and concessionary travel during coronavirus on the Transport Scotland website.
