WEST PENWITH COMMUNITY BUS ASSOCIATION

Community Bus

The West Penwith Community Bus has been in service since 1985 and has continued to provide transport services to the local community where public transport is unable to meet specific needs.

In the main we operate a demand and response service known as Dial- a-Ride which offers a flexible pick up and drop off point and, wherever possible, a door to door service. This service offers transport in the West Penwith area and covers nine villages in the surrounding rural area.

The West Penwith Community Bus Association is run by a voluntary committee and employs a part-time administrator and six part-time drivers..

We are a non-profit making organisation which, in the main, provides transport to people who have no access to transport, have difficulty in using public transport, are students, aged over 60 or who have difficulty in walking. Our buses are equipped with wheelchair access and assistance dogs travel free of charge. Our aim is to offer a friendly and reliable service to all who travel with us.

We also offer a group hire service, at very competitive rates, to organisations such as sports clubs, youth clubs, senior social clubs, etc. Call us for details
