Fund free bus travel for women and children after sunset

What the petition asks
The Government should fund free bus travel, possibly through a special bus pass, for women and children after sunset.
Women should not have to choose between the risks of walking home alone to save money or paying for transport. Many women are scared to walk in the dark. An inability to pay for safety should not mean women are stuck indoors.
