Community Transport

Cumbria County Council tries to ensure that as many people as possible have regular access to some form of public transport in their area.  In a predominantly rural area with a dispersed population, such as Cumbria is, this can present a number of practical and financial difficulties.  However, we try to find innovative and cost-effective solutions to these difficulties whenever possible.

Consequently, there are a number of special schemes presently available to local communities.  Further information on these schemes can be found by following the links.  The linked pages contain contact details for particular schemes.  You can also view relevant documents from our e-library using the list below.

If you have any more general queries about community transport policy and arrangements, please contact Caroline Watson.
