You can book as far in advance as you like, and you can also make a regular booking, Remember - it's first come, first served! Please tell the operator when you book if you need wheelchair access.

It must be Expensive! No - a single journey will cost you just 50p, and all the usual Transport Executive concessions and travel passes are still valid, Please note, however, that if you cancel your booking with less than an hour's notice, there will be a cancellation fee of Ł1.
