Most school children who use the bus service to school need to transfer at least once on their route. This is where the big saving comes in, since GO GEORGE passengers can travel right across town and transfer between buses within one hour, without paying again.
Even cheaper with Smart Card
Smart Card users who top up with10 trips or more at a time, can travel from Pacaltsdorp to Outeniqua High School, from Denneoord to PW Botha College, from Blanco to George High – the entire distance at the price of one trip: R9.50.
Should you top up with less than 10 trips, the cost is R10.50 per trip, and buying a cash trip on the bus costs R13. Clearly, the smart thing to do is to use the Smart Card instead of buying on the bus and save up to R150 per month per child!
Safety is every parent’s priority
Parents can rest assured and focus on work, knowing that their children will get back home safely after school, transported by a trained driver from a bus stop near school, on a well-maintained vehicle via a fixed route.
Using the bus service should be a pleasant experience for all
GO GEORGE encourages courteous and kind behaviour among passengers, and especially call upon school children to treat adults and elderly passengers on the bus with respect.
