Abstract
► Young people aged 12-18 in London have had free bus travel since 2005/6. ► This removes any financial incentive to walk, but also generates additional trips. ► Transport poverty is not a significant issue for young people in London. ► Buses provide a key site for sociability and public engagement in the city. ► Our findings problematise the assumption that bus travel is a 'passive' mode.
