Community Transport

While the pandemic impacted our ability to provide a full Community Transport service in 2020, Community Transport fees were waived. However, we are optimistic that 2021 will enable us to deliver full Community Transport services, and therefore Community Transport fees will be reinstated from 1 February, 2021.
