College Transport

Operated on a fleet of Bishop’s Stortford College minibuses, our transport service connects towns and villages across Hertfordshire and Essex with the College, offering pupils a safe and reliable route to/from school, at the start and end of each day. All minibuses arrive by 8.15am and depart around 5.15pm, with timings adjusted at the end of term to reflect any changes to the school day.

All minibuses are maintained to the highest standards, with dedicated drivers on each route; all of which are subject to enhanced DBS checks and full MiDAS or CPC training.
