Community Transport provides journeys for people unable to use conventional public transport.
Although all schemes wish to be as open as possible, the majority of the schemes are restricted to those meeting the following criteria:
• Those who do not have access to public transport and do not have access to their own car;
• Those who are unable to use public transport, i.e. because of a disability;
• Those who are socially isolated from accessing basic public services and facilities, such as healthcare.
These services mainly 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. Cambridgeshire County Council is extremely grateful to all those who have made this happen.
The material on these web pages is taken from the Cambridgeshire Community Transport Guide. This booklet explains what community transport is, how to use it, and who offers transport in your area. The Guide lists contact details of schemes by district.
These Guides are available throughout Cambridgeshire in all libraries, medical centres and surgeries, facilities involved with or supported by Social Services, voluntary and community based organisations, or by contacting the Community Transport Officer.
We are keen to develop further Community Transport schemes within the County, particularly schemes that can complement existing passenger transport. We provide assistance in setting up schemes and support all schemes thereafter.
For information and advice on setting up a scheme, please telephone or contact the Community Transport Officer.
