The BUSIT Free Family Adventure Pass

We want more families to experience BUSIT's regional (blue) services over the school holidays. We are giving you the opportunity to travel for free as part our "Free Family Adventure Pass". 

From Friday 3rd April* to Sunday 19th April families who present the "Free Family Adventure Pass" (on their phone or printed version) to the driver will get a free ride on BUSIT's regional services.

It's one pass per family (up to 2 adults and 4 kids). We understand that families come in all sizes so if your family/group is larger, we suggest another adult also downloads a pass and presents that as well. 

Check out the FAQ for more information about how it works! 

*please note Friday 3rd April is a public holiday, and services will be running to their public holiday timetable.
