School Run
We know that the school-run is a time where lots of short journeys are made that adds pressure to the road network. Listening to customers, we have introduced an app exclusive 'School-Run' ticket to help make the journey as easy as possible - and great value!
For just £6.50 one adult and up to three children* can have unlimited travel across Cardiff, Llandough and Penarth on school days between 07:00 and 19:00. The ticket is also valid when the adult is travelling alone, so ideal for getting back home or to the shops or work between the school runs.
You can find this ticket in the family & group tickets section of our app.
For the 2025/2026 school year, this ticket is valid on the following dates:
| Term | First Day Valid | Last Day Valid | Exceptions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Autumn Term 1 | Monday 1st September | Friday 24th October | |
| Autumn Term 2 | Monday 3rd November | Friday 19th December | |
| Spring Term 1 | Monday 5th January | Friday 13th February | |
| Spring Term 2 | Monday 23rd February | Friday 27th March | |
| Summer Term 1 | Monday 13th April | Friday 22nd May | Monday 4th May (Early May Bank Holiday) |
| Summer Term 2 | Monday 1st June | Monday 20th July |
*Please note, that the adult must travel with the group (and with the ticket) throughout the journey.
