The Derbyshire Concessionary Travel Scheme is for Elderly and Disabled Persons resident in Derbyshire, and is jointly financed by the County Council and all the District Councils. Travel permits provided under this scheme can be used on buses and trains throughout the county, with very few exceptions.
Leaflets giving more information, and application forms, are available from local libraries.
Holders of free travel permits can travel on any bus or train service covered by the scheme without charge. Holders of half-fare travel permits can travel on any bus or train service included in the scheme for half the normal adult fare, and can buy day returns and most other discounted tickets at half the normal adult rate. Permits are valid at all times of the day and every day of the week. You can also use bus services going outside the County, provided that you start or finish your journey in Derbyshire and do not change buses. Application forms are also available at sub post offices.
