Passenger Services

Passenger Services is a unit set up by Kent County Council to provide competitive public, school and specialised passenger transport services, including dial-a-ride. We compete for contracts with other providers, but also have a special role in providing non-commercial but socially necessary bus services in our county.

We operate various bus routes in and around some of Kent's major towns. We also service a number of school transport contracts. And we are increasing our private hire operations.

Our latest fleet of coaches has a bright yellow livery but that's not the only way the vehicles stand out. They have been designed to provide the latest range of comfort and safety features and to allow complete access for passengers with disabilities. This includes a purpose-designed wheelchair lift with side access to a specially converted area. Safety equipment includes seat belts for all passengers and a suite of CCTV cameras to monitor every access door, what is behind the vehicle and what is happening inside. All our drivers are fully vetted and have also undergone training in defensive driving, emergency vehicle evacuation and disability awareness.

Our coaches and minibuses are available for private hire for journeys, including school outings, throughout the South East. We can also take you further afield, to anywhere in the United Kingdom or on excursions elsewhere in Europe.
