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. 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 (Please note: students who are entitled to a free Scholars Travel Pass for journeys between home and school and students aged between 16 and 19 who have a Scholars Concessionary Pass, do not need an IGO Pass for these journeys) 20/04/2021 Stockport Schools 2019/2020 Page 1 MARPLE HALL SCHOOL (0835 – 1450/1400 Mondays) Effective 1 February 2021 The Following general bus services provide links to Marple Hall School: 358 Hayfield – New Mills – Marple – Stockport 375 Mellor – Offerton – Stepping Hill - Stockport 383 Stockport – Marple – Romiley Circular 384 Stockport – Bredbury – Romiley – Marple Circular For the latest timetable information go to www.tfgm.com/public-transport/bus School Bus Services: HAZEL GROVE – HIGH LANE – MARPLE HALL via Racecourse estate Service 809 STOCKPORT B/S – BOSDEN FARM – MARPLE HALL via Offerton estate Service 844 TfGM Contract: 0058 0469 TfGM Contract: 0058 0058 0467 0467 Minimum Capacity: 90 85 Minimum Capacity: 90 90 85 85 Operator Code: SM SM Operator Code: SM SM SM SM Service Number: 809 844 Service Number: 809 809 844 844 MO NM MO NM HALL ST/TURNCROFT LN ---- 0745 MARPLE HALL SCHOOL 1410 1500 1410 1455 Hazel Grove, Fiveways 0724 ---- Cheadle and Marple College 1420 # 1510 # ---- ---- Commercial Road/A6 0730 ---- Hawk Green, Crown Hotel 1422 1512 ---- ---- Chepstow Drive 0741 ---- High Lane, Horseshoe Hotel 1430 1520 ---- ---- HAZEL GROVE, Rising Sun 0745 ---- High Lane, Alderdale Drive 1435 1525 ---- ---- Nangreave Road/Dialstone Lane ---- 0751 Bosden Farm, Harvester ---- ---- 1418 1503 Offerton, Mallowdale Road ---- 0754 Offerton, Mallowdale Road ---- ---- 1426 1511 Bosden Farm, Harvester --- 0804 Dialstone Lane/Nangreave Road ---- ---- 1429 1514 High Lane, Alderdale Drive 0753 ---- HAZEL GROVE, Rising Sun 1443 1533 High Lane, Horseshoe Hotel 0755 ---- Chepstow Drive 1447 1537 ---- ---- Cheadle and Marple College 0802 ---- Commercial Road/A6 1457 1547 ---- ---- MARPLE HALL SCHOOL 0810 0810 HALL ST/TURNCROFT LN ---- ---- 1433 1518 Hazel Grove, Fiveways 1503 1553 ---- ---- # LIMITED STOP: First setting down point is Cheadle and Marple College NM Not Mondays MO Mondays only SERVICE 809: From HAZEL GROVE, Fiveways via Dean Lane, Chester Road, Grundey Street, London Road, Commercial Road, Bosden Fold Road, Hazelwood Road, Clarendon Road, Brinkburn Road, Offerton Road, Torkington Road, Highfield Road, Sandown Road, Chepstow Drive, Highfield Road, Torkington Road, London Road, Buxton Road, Brookside Lane, Hartington Road, Alderdale Drive, Buxton Road, Windlehurst Road, Upper Hibbert Lane, Hibbert Lane, Cheadle and Marple College turning circle, Hibbert Lane, Stockport Road, Hill Top Drive FOR MARPLE HALL SCHOOL.
