Portsmouth bus travel: Free journeys on First services to mark special occasion - when
and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
Serving personnel, veterans and cadets can use First Bus services for free on June 29 across Hampshire, Somerset, Berkshire and Dorset. They can be in uniform or use valid identification to get the travel at no cost.
Cadets need to wear uniform and veterans can use valid ID such as the Ministry of Defence issued Veteran’s Badge. James Eustace, Commercial Director for First Bus South, said: “Armed Forces Day is an important occasion for so many people across the UK, recognising the incredible service that military personnel provide, and most importantly, remembering those who have been lost in service.
