Is free bus travel working for pensioners?

BBC Radio Scotland - Morning Extra, Is free bus travel working for pensioners?

Graham Stewart takes your calls on claims that people can't make use of their free passes.

Graham Stewart takes your calls on claims that people can't make use of their free bus passes. And should public transport be available to everyone free of charge?

Groups representing pensioners and those with disabilities say they can't make the most of their free passes because they live too far from a bus stop. They want more routes, more services and more accessible buses.

And should public transport be available to anyone, anywhere, at any time: free of charge? The Scottish Socialist Party campaigned for universal free public transport at the last Scottish elections. We find out how such a scheme would work.
