Swindon residents are being offered a week’s unlimited bus travel for half the price in a bid to ease fuel pump costs.
Swindon Bus Company is offering car drivers the chance to avoid rising fuel costs by switching to the bus, and trying its services for half the cost of regular weekly app tickets.
With prices at fuel pumps creeping towards £2 per litre – and predicted to go much higher – many are reconsidering their travel options, and the local bus operator is urging them to embrace green and efficient public transport.
Customers using the bus companies app for the first time can travel in any zone, as often as they like, for their first week with 50% off a seven day ticket by using the discount code FUEL

- Once you’ve created an account, add the discount code FUEL in the discount code section.
- Select Buy Ticket, and purchase your ticket.
- This will now appear in Your Tickets, where you can activate it when you are ready to go by bus.
