Scotcard: A Single National Card for Seamless, Affordable Travel in Scotland
Scotlands current public transport ticketing system is complex and costly, with separate fares for buses, trains, and ferries. The Scottish Greens propose Scotcard, a unified national card for contactless entry and exit, with daily price caps to control spending. This system, inspired by successful European models like Germany and Austria, aims to simplify green travel, reduce car usage, and alleviate financial burdens on families and workers. Scotcard promises seamless journeys without ticket swaps and could significantly contribute to Scotlands fight against climate change.
