Community transport
Community transport provides journey opportunities for people who are unable to use conventional public transport or who live in an area not frequently served by public transport or those with a disability.
It can also be used by people who are socially isolated from accessing basic public services and facilities, such as health care, employment and training services.
Some services involve a workforce of dedicated volunteers, giving up their time to help others to provide transport services. Each operates in a way best suited to their locality and the communities they serve.
There are five Community transport schemes some of which provide minibus hire, dial-a-ride services, voluntary car schemes and wheels 2 work, all operating within the county borough, details of which are included below.
