A new Southern Vectis bus

Free bus travel for service personnel to celebrate Armed Forces Day with Southern Vectis

Southern Vectis is offering free travel for current and veteran military personnel on Sunday 30th June to mark Isle of Wight Armed Forces Day.

Southern Vectis managing director, Andrew Wickham, said,

“People on the Isle of Wight are rightfully proud of our country’s military – as is our team here.

“As part of this community, we are keen to show our support for servicemen and women. 

“The work our troops have done in the past, and still do now, in unimaginably hostile war zones is incredibly humbling. And we want to recognise their efforts even in this small way to help them travel to events or to see family and friends on Isle of Wight Armed Forces Day. 

“On Sunday 30 June, we welcome all those wearing their military uniform, displaying medals, or showing their military ID card on board our buses, and they may travel for free with us all day.”
