PlusBus tickets

Buy your PlusBus ticket with your train ticket. Complete train and bus travel in one easy transaction.

What is PlusBus?

PlusBus is a discounted bus pass (like a travelcard) for unlimited bus travel around towns and cities, bought with a train ticket. With PlusBus, your bus travel can be before, after or at both ends of your train journey.

You’ll pay for your complete train and bus travel in one easy transaction at the station, by phone or online. PlusBus is available to 26 towns and cities on the TfW network (listed below):

How does PlusBus work?

For each town, there’s one zone covering the whole urban area. Your train journey must start or finish outside this bus travel zone to buy a PlusBus ticket. With PlusBus, you can travel as much as you like on all participating buses anywhere in the zone.

How much does PlusBus cost?

PlusBus tickets are great value for money, starting from £2.50 a day. Save ⅓ off the PlusBus day ticket prices with your Railcard (restrictions apply). Children under 16 years old pay half the adult PlusBus ticket price.
