Bus and Rail Services
The following links are to the Dorset County Council bus and rail transport web pages. You should be able to find timetables and services on these pages for local transport.
NORDCAT & SCAT Bus provides a door-to-door demand responsive service in North and North West Dorset respectively. The service enables access to shopping, visiting friends, medical appointments and much more. The services run in different parts of the area each day.
Also available once a week is the opportunity to visit the larger towns, e.g. Poole, Bournemouth, Street (Shopping Village), Exeter, Salisbury and Dorchester.
The vehicles are wheelchair-friendly and easily accessible to those with mobility problems.
We provide a service for people of all ages who have difficulty in using normal public transport for whatever reason and all people over 60. Any person wishing to use the service must register. There is a small annual registration fee of £2.00, which covers the cost of a newsletter and programme being circulated to you every 4 months.
The buses are also available for community groups to borrow at a competitive rate.
