Stop any rises in travel passes for further education students

Petition Details

Cornwall council has announced subsidised travel passes for further education students will cost more to purchase, with a possible 50% increase, although this seems like a local issue other local authorities may have similar plans and could affect students nationwide, prices are too high already.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Concessionary travel passes for further education students are the responsibility of local authorities, not the UK Government or Parliament.

You could raise this with your local council. You can find out who your local councillor is here:
www.gov.uk/find-your-local-councillors

You could start a petition asking for the UK Government to stop local councils from being able to raise the cost of concessionary travel passes by more than a certain amount.
