Carousel School Bus Services

Dedicated school & college bus services (2026/27)

Alongside our network of local bus services, we also operate several dedicated school and college bus services which are numbered between 601 and 699.

Travel on our dedicated school and college services usually requires a specific ticket for that route which must be purchased for the whole year. You can choose to do this as a one-off payment or can pay with a deposit and six instalments. Some services also offer students the option to pay on the day – please see the full details for each service below.

Most of the routes detailed below are already guaranteed to operate for the 2026/27 academic year. Some other services require a specific minimum number of customers to commit to using the service before it will be confirmed. You can see more information on this and whether it applies to your service below. Should you purchase a ticket for a service which needs a specific number of students and that threshold is not met, we’ll notify you in good time before the commencement of the Autumn 2026 term and any payments made will be refunded in full.

We understand that increasing numbers of schools are now choosing to make their sites ‘smartphone free’, and so we’re pleased to confirm that tickets for all of our dedicated school and college services are available as either mobile app tickets or as reusable smartcards without any difference in cost.

Unless stated otherwise, passes for dedicated school and college services can additionally be used on our network of local bus services at any time on all days of the week – perfect for after school activities or days out with friends.
