Will to you try the bus for a change this month?
The council is promoting its 50 bus routes across Powys, highlighting that the X75, which can be used to travel from Newtown to Aberystwyth is just £4.
The refurbished Powys buses have upgraded audio-visual announcements, USB charging ports and more comfortable seating.
September 22 is World Car Free Day, a global initiative which encourages people to leave their cars at home and choose sustainable travel options.
Cllr Jackie Charlton, Cabinet Member for a Greener Powys, said: “Catch the Bus Month is a great opportunity to try a local bus service and discover just how easy and affordable public transport can be. Every journey made by bus helps reduce congestion and emissions while supporting a greener Powys.
“My husband is a regular passenger on the excellent bus service near us. He finds it a great way to meet people and catch up with the local gossip!”
Residents are encouraged to leave the car at home, give the bus a try this September and see where Powys’ bus network can take them.
