Bus times are provided by the respective bus companies and are subject to change, these times are approximate so please be at the bus stop early. The times indicated are timing points along the route, buses can be caught from any stop along the route. You must signal clearly to the driver if you want to board, buses will not stop automatically. Wilberforce Sixth Form College accepts no responsibility for any change to the service or reliability of the service.
We review our routes every year to ensure they serve all the areas our students travel in from. If you are considering attending Wilberforce College next year, but are not sure if there will be a bus that suits you, please contact us to discuss on 01482 711688 or email enquiries@wilberforce.ac.uk.
