Putting Free Buses Back on the Agenda

In September 2019, Glasgow City Council agreed to make a "formal assessment of the potential for making the transition to a public transport system that is free to use", by backing recommendations made by its Climate Emergency Working Group. However, this pledge has now disappeared from their draft Climate Emergency Implementation Plan.

Please join Free Our City to help put free buses back on the agenda!

On Thursday 25 March 2021, 7pm, we've invited Councillors to take part in this public hearing on their Climate Emergency Implementation Plan, to answer the questions raised in Free Our City's Response.

We’ll be hearing testimony from representatives of many local groups, organisations and Community Councils about the problems they encounter with Glasgow's public transport, and the transformative impact making it fare-free would have.

We'll be asking all Councillors to back our campaign’s demand for a world-class, fully-integrated and accessible public transport network – free at the point of use.

Confirmed Speakers include:

Councillor Anna Richardson (SNP)

Councillor Eva Murray (Labour)

Councillor Jon Molyneux (Green)
