Journeo is proud to be supporting Catch the Bus Month 2026, the annual campaign led by Bus Users UK celebrating the huge benefits of bus travel and inspiring more people to get on board.
This year’s myth busting theme challenges outdated perceptions and showcases the reality of modern bus travel as clean, green, affordable and increasingly accessible.
Every day, around 10 million bus journeys get people to work, education, healthcare appointments, shops and social activities. Buses reduce congestion, cut emissions, support local economies and connect communities, yet many myths about bus travel still persist.
Throughout Catch the Bus Month, Journeo will be helping to bust those myths by highlighting the value of local bus services and encouraging people to get on board.
Darren Maher, Group Development and Communications Director at Journeo said: “Buses play a vital role in keeping our communities connected and our towns and cities moving. Catch the Bus Month is a great opportunity to challenge misconceptions, celebrate the benefits buses bring, and encourage more people to choose bus. We are delighted to be supporting the campaign and look forward to welcoming people on board throughout the month.”
Lydia Horbury, Chief Executive of Bus Users UK said: “Catch the Bus Month 2026 is all about shifting the narrative and busting the myths around bus travel. Buses are affordable, accessible, sustainable and essential to the millions who travel on them every day, yet many people still don’t realise the positive impact they have on our lives, our health, our communities and the environment.
“We’re thrilled to have Journeo on board to champion these lifeline services, challenge misconceptions, and help more people discover the real benefits of travelling by bus.”
