This information is based on routes currently offered. We try to accommodate requests for new locations and routes each year.
Prices for the current year (2024/2025) range from £2.50 to £10 for single journeys and £4 to £18 for return journeys on termly sign ups. We offer flexibility in terms of choosing single or return journeys, different pick up and drop off locations and a choice of days.
All routes will drop off at the White Gates for the walking bus to the Cathedral Site at 8.15am, then proceed to Durham School.
All return journeys will leave the Durham School Site at 5.30pm, allowing pupils time to take part in an activity or complete their prep. A return walking bus from Cathedral site will be introduced for those wishing to get return transport.
Our own drivers will operate the routes and all have full DBS checks.
