The service is available for anyone who lives, works or visits in the area. There is no age restriction. We can accommodate people with wheelchairs, pushchairs or bicycles.

You can catch the bus from anywhere in the project area, however you must book ahead. The service can be booked from a home address (where safe) if you are unable to access a bus stop.
