Free Travel on Arriva Buses in Leighton Buzzard and Linslade
Thanks to funding received from the Department for Transport (DfT) to improve bus services across Central Bedfordshire, all passengers will also be able to travel for free on the Arriva routes 150, F70 and F77 within the Leighton town zone, and to all points on routes L1 to L6, until Christmas 2023.
Fares to and from destinations outside the Leighton town tone will continue to be charged as normal, although these are currently capped at £2 under the fare cap promotion funded by the government as part of its Help for Households campaign.
Further information about the new services, including timetables and maps, is available in a leaflet produced by Arriva and additional information is available on Arriva’s website.
