New policy of bus card for the elderly

The specific contents of the new bus card policy for the elderly are as follows:

1. Instead of issuing free bus cards, comprehensive allowances will be issued. If an old man doesn't need to travel by bus, he can save the money for other expenses;

2, free for a limited time, unlimited times in the past, free for an unlimited time, and it is easy to have some disadvantages after a long time. When the elderly have less sleep time and more free time, some elderly people will insist on not sitting for free. First, they will waste resources. And catch up with the peak of people going to work and school, some old people even lean on the old people and accuse the young people of not giving up their seats. However, we must know that young people are under great pressure now, and their physical fitness may not keep up with the so-called old people who dance square dance every day. In this regard, in some areas, the number of times the old-age card is used is limited, ranging from 50- 100 times a month, which can avoid the waste of some resources;

3. Free for a limited time, and plan the peak hours. If the elderly travel during this period, there is no discount. The rest of the time, if the elderly are 60-69 years old, the bus fare is half price, and if the elderly are 70 years old and above, the bus fare is free.

Old people need adequate conditions to use the free bus service;

1, elderly people over the age of 65 can apply for a bus card for the elderly and enjoy free bus service;

2. Older people who are over 60 years old but under 65 years old need to pay a certain annual fee to use the elderly bus card;

3. Older people under the age of 60 can't use the bus card for the elderly, so they need to buy an ordinary bus card.

To sum up, although the new bus card policy for the elderly in various places can not completely solve the traffic pressure problem, it is also beneficial in the long run.
