Bus travel

All student bus users need to verify their student status to access cheaper tickets on the B&H Buses app.

You only need to verify your status once – after it has been done you can generally continue to purchase student tickets without re-verification until the expiry date on your ID card.

To help accommodate members of the University and the general public with hidden disabilities or mobility issues that may not be immediately apparent, Brighton & Hove Buses have introduced the Helping Hand scheme - a yellow card or badge that quickly advises of any assistance the user may require in a discreet manner.

This can include a mobility issue, visual impairment, a hidden medical condition, or anything else that may affect your journey that the driver can help you with. The card also has space for your name and emergency contact in the case of an emergency.

Helping Hand is used on numerous local transport services, and is quickly expanding to a variety of businesses and services across the UK. For more information, .
