Christmas Bus Travel & Parking Offer

Free all-day bus travel will help people get to the Dundee Christmas Switch on event (Sunday November 15) and the Dundee Hooley (Sunday November 29). 

The move has been taken by Dundee City Council to assist families during the cost of living crisis and to promote more regular bus use. 

Meanwhile, free car parking will be on offer for motorists at the Bell Street Hub all day on Sunday November 15 and Sunday November 29. 

The local authority is using funding from Tactran’s People and Place Fund to cover the cost of bus journeys within Dundee on the two Sundays. Buses are free all day and cover all bus journeys so people can travel into and across Dundee, as well as enjoying the Christmas events taking place. 

The free bus travel offer extends across the ABC Dundee zone meaning communities like Invergowrie, Birkhill, Tayport and Monifieth are also included. 

The initiative applies to people aged 22-59 who are not entitled to free bus passes under national schemes. No tickets, cards or forms are required. All people will be able to travel free. 

Bus companies Xplore Dundee, Stagecoach and Moffat & Williamson are all taking part. 

There will be city centre road closures during the day of both events, you can find details at: https://www.dundee.com/christmas-dundee-road-closures
