One stop-shop for Brighton and Hove school bus information

The site lists every Brighton and Hove secondary school and the bus routes that serve them, as well as timetables, bus stops and fares.

Hide AdMartin Harris, Brighton and Hove Buses’ managing director, said: “I know many parents will be frantically dashing around buying school shoes and uniforms and worrying about how their child will cope at a new, often larger, school next month.
“We can take at least some of the worry out of the equation by making the journey to school as easy and as stress-free as possible. Our drivers are experienced and friendly and they’ll make sure your child gets to school safely and on time.”
There is also a busID scheme for young people aged five to 18, where e-tickets can be uploaded onto a card and topped up online.
To get a busID card, pop into 1 Stop Travel or the company’s head office at 43 Conway Street, Hove, with proof of date of birth, and a passport photo.

Children must be living at the same address and both tickets must be bought at the same time but they can have different start dates. Visit goo.gl/BaAumg for more information.
