Travel Safe Officer

The Travel Safe Team is made up of one Supervisor and 6 officers. The service runs from 14:00 - 00:00 Friday and 07:00 - 00:00 Saturday and Sundays. The team will work varying 10 hour shifts with 45 unpaid breaks. The team is a proactive, community‑focused service designed to improve safety, confidence and public experience across local transport networks. Operating on key bus routes, transport hubs and areas affected by antisocial behaviour (ASB), the service provides a visible and reassuring presence for passengers, transport staff and the wider community. Officers use a balanced approach of engagement, education and enforcement, supporting those who travel while addressing behaviours that undermine safety or cause nuisance. By working in a uniformed, accredited capacity, the service helps create cleaner, safer and more welcoming journeys for everyone. The Travel Safe Officer role exists to provide a visible and proactive presence across the Bus Link in Gosport, during evenings and weekends. The officer’s core purpose is to deter and address antisocial behaviour (ASB), reassure passengers, and contribute to creating a safe, comfortable travel environment. This includes interacting with members of the public, supporting transport staff, and responding to reports of disorder or concerns raised by passengers.
