How much each year does the WMCA spend on free public transport for elders like me, and the other concessionary groups? What would it cost to extend it to everyone?
The amount spent on reimbursement for free concessionary travel for 2019/20 was £48.43m
In addition to this, we also offer an enhancement to English National Concessionary
Travel Scheme (ENCTS) pass holders who live in the West Midlands. This allows them to use their passes on local Rail services and Metro. This cost in 2019/20 was £4.04m.
Finally, we provide a child concession. This cost in 2019/20 was £6.15m.
SELF: All concessions: £58 m for 19/20
Rail and Metro services cost £10.2 m in 2022/23
Metro is £7.6 m for 23 Kms in 22/23 - from earlier email I was sent.
Therefore, rail subsidy must be £2.7 m in 22/23 for more Kms than 23 Kms for Metro!
All concessions: £60 m for 22/23.
