using Transdev a weekly 'silver' childs ticket will cost £10.20, with this ticket she can go to other places at the weekend such as ....

Accrington
Blackburn/Darwen
Bacup, Town Centre
Bolton, Moor Lane Bus Station
Chorley, Interchange
Clitheroe, Interchange
Haslingden, Bent Gate or Road End
Keighley, Bus Station
Preston, Bus Station
Rawtenstall, Bank Street / Bus Station
Skipton, Bus Station
Todmorden, Bus Station

i know which i'd opt for

it will take her as far as school during the week too


Fares ~ Transdev

Thanks for the info, I've already checked all the alternatives, problem is the best times for her and closest to school are an X41 ( Transdev) in the morning, and a 464 (Rossendale Transport) bus home, if the X41 was available after school she would get that but it currently means a 40+ minute wait on her own in a bus stop. And I am well aware of it being my choice to send her to Hassy High, one I don't regret, I just object to being fleeced by a bus company that pretty much has a monopoly on bus travel up the Valley. ( Also informed by a Rossendale bus driver that they " don't do return tickets for children" Quality.
