YOUNG people can get ‘smart’ over bus and rail travel.

A new smart-enabled version of the Metro Young Person’s Photocard has been launched.

The card, for young people aged 11 to 16, allows half-price travel across West Yorkshire.

The card will soon be able to be loaded with tickets.

After that passengers will be able to ‘swipe’ the card on buses without the need to worry about having the right change.

To apply for a card go to www.wymetro.com.
