Wedmore Community Bus
provides regular local bus travel to Taunton, Bridgwater, Street & Weston-super-mare
We try to pick up and drop off at the homes of all users who need this and at a location that is convenient for other passengers. We are also flexible about drop offs on route.
We are happy to provide help in getting on and off the bus for those who need it.
It’s a friendly place where there’s normally a happy buzz of conversation. Our passengers often meet for a coffee whilst at the destination.

Our drivers are fully trained and they volunteer to provide this local service. Each enquiry will be provided with a list of drivers to contact.
If you are a community group and wish to make regular use of the service, then we can train one of your members, so you always have a driver available.
The bus safely seats 16 people, and will cost a blanket charge of £2 per mile (plus a discretionary tip for the volunteer driver). There is a discounted rate of £1 per mile for youth’s and children‘s community groups and adult’s community groups who have their own driver approved by Somerset Council.
