Transport
On this page you can search for details of community transport providers in the Humber sub-region. Community transport schemes are usually run by volunteer or charity groups, for the benefit of people who might find it difficult to use ordinary public transport. The services use cars, buses or minibuses, which may be specially modified for passengers who use wheelchairs, for example. While some providers may need a few days notice for a particular journey, some organisations offer a "dial-a-ride" service. This means that trips can be booked by telephone to take place on the same day.
Clicking on the name of the provider will open up the entry to show further details.
