Truro's park and ride will be offering two days of free travel on August 4 to celebrate its 10 year anniversary.

There will be no charge to pay to park and use the buses on both Friday, August 3 and Saturday, August 4.

Since buses first began running between Langarth and the city centre in 2008, more than a million passengers have used Park for Truro.

Cornwall Council Portfolio holder for Transport Geoff Brown said: “To have had more than a million passengers use our park and ride services is a real testament to the success of the scheme.

“It is great to be able to offer free transport as part of the anniversary celebrations, it is nice to be able to say thank you to all of those who have helped ease congestion over the past decade.”

“I am sure people will continue to use the service for the next decade and beyond as a quick and cost-effective way to visit our wonderful city.”

A second service from Tregurra Park opened in 2015, giving more than 2,500 parking spaces available across the two locations.

Operated by Cornwall Council, the service uses eco-friendly vehicles and is designed to ease congestion in the city by offering visitors and daily commuters a safe, frequent and cost-effective alternative to driving into and parking in the city centre.

On Saturday, August 4, there will be a free draw at both sites for the chance to win a free 60 day travel pass, which will entitle the winner to 60 days of non-consecutive unlimited travel on the service.
