- By DEBORAH HALL

THE Hull Bus Alliance has announced a group travel discount to help people get out and about over the festive season.

The offer will also provide a timely boost for the local economy during the busy Christmas and New Year period.

Stagecoach East Midlands and East Yorkshire Buses will be offering the Hull Card Group ticket for up to five people for £7, perfect for families and groups of friends enjoying a day out or attending the city's packed programme of events. The initiative, funded by the Department for Transport and Hull City Council, runs throughout December, up to the 31st.

The Hull Card Group ticket can be used as many times as you like on Stagecoach or East Yorkshire buses in Hull on the day of purchase. The group must be travelling together.
