School Bus Services in Bolton September 2020 to July 2021 Journeys in this leaflet operate on schooldays only, unless otherwise stated. Services are listed alphabetically under school names. - 1 - An introduction to School buses and concessionary fares for students in Greater Manchester Passengers can pay a fare to the driver for each journey shown on this timetable. However, students will need to show an IGO pass to travel at the concessionary (reduced) fare. If students do not have an IGO pass, they will have to pay a higher fare. Most of the journeys shown in this timetable are funded by Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM). The majority of TfGM funded services charge a standard fare and also offer daily return tickets. In some cases, the return ticket can also be used for travel on other journeys which serve similar areas – even if it is provided by a different operator. On most services, students can also buy a weekly scholar’s ticket, which costs £7.60 These are ONLY valid on schooldays on school buses and are available from the bus driver on all services where they are applicable. To help the driver, please try to have the correct fare when buying your ticket. Carnet ticket (10 single trips) £10 – available to buy on the bus or at a TfGM Travel shop. A summary of fares and ticketing information on all school services included in this timetable can be found at https://www.tfgm.com/tickets-and-passes/bus-school-bus-services There are also a small number of TfGM funded services where the operator sets the fares. You will need to check with the operator what fares are available. Yellow School Buses This timetable also shows the journeys operated by Yellow School Buses. The requirement for students to obtain a pass to travel on these services has been removed for September 2020 The IGO Pass All students between the ages of 11 and 16 need an IGO pass if they wish to travel at the concessionary (reduced fare) rate on buses. The IGO pass is like an ID card and proves that the student is aged 16 or under. It must be carried on all journeys and shown to the driver before paying the fare. The IGO pass costs £10 and can only be bought by students who live, or go to school in Greater Manchester. More information on IGO and an application form to get an IGO pass is on the TfGM website at http://igo.tfgm.com - 2 - TURTON HIGH SCHOOL & MEDIA ARTS COLLEGE (0850/1500), Bromley Cross Effective 08/03/2021 The following general bus service provides a link to Turton High School & Media Arts College: 541: Toppings - Bolton For the latest timetable information go to www.tfgm.com/public-transport/bus ASTLEY BRIDGE – EGERTON – TURTON HIGH SCHOOL Service 913 TfGM Contract no 5074 TfGM Contract no 5074 Minimum Capacity 52 Minimum Capacity 52 Operator: TYR Operator: TYR Service No: 913 Service No: 913 BLACKBURN ROAD/PROSPECT STREET 0754 TURTON HIGH SCHOOL (Grounds) 1510 Astley Bridge, Pineapple 0759 EGERTON, Cross Guns 1517 EGERTON, Cross Guns 0808 Dunscar, War Memorial 1520 TURTON HIGH SCHOOL 0820 ASTLEY BRIDGE, Pineapple 1528 SERVICE 913: From BLACKBURN ROAD/PROSPECT STREET via Blackburn Road to Egerton, Turning Circle then via Blackburn Road, Darwen Road, Bromley Cross Road to TURTON HIGH SCHOOL.
