Catch the bus to beat the prices at the petrol pumps!

During the week of 9 June 2022 the RAC reported the cost of filling an average family car has topped £100!

Swindon’s Bus Company are offering local car drivers the chance to avoid rising fuel costs by switching to the bus, and try out services by saving you half the cost of a weekly app ticket.

With prices at fuel pumps increasing towards £2 per litre – and predicted to go much higher – many are reconsidering their travel options, and we are urging you to embrace green and efficient public transport.

Customers using our 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 ROADSHOW22

In order to take advantage of this offer:

  • Download the Swindon’s Bus Company app from the App Store or Google Play Store
  • Go to the Mobile Tickets section
  • Select which zone you would like to buy a ticket in. View our zone map.
  • Click on the 7 Day ticket for the zone you want to travel in.
  • You will then be asked to create an account with the app – in order to store your ticket.
  • Once you’ve created an account, add the discount code ROADSHOW22 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.

For those who haven’t used a bus in a long time, you will find our app has many other great features. As well as being able to buy tickets, people can track their buses in live time and plan a journey
