Transport Arrangements
There are a number of transport providers that serve our students. They are:
Central Bedfordshire Council
CBC provides transport for those students who are entitled to a free bus pass. They currently operate the following bus routes but this can vary year on year:
- A01 - Shillington, Haynes, Maulden
- A02 - Westoning, Flitton, Silsoe
- A03 - Ampthill
- A05 - Houghton Conquest, Clophill, Maulden
- A11/A14 - Woburn Sands, Aspley Hill, Aspley Guise, Husborne Crawley, Ridgmont, Brogborough, Sheep Tick End, Lidlington, Millbrook
- A11A - Eversholt
- A12 - Marston Moretaine, Millbrook
If you would like to know if your child is entitled to a free bus pass please telephone Central Bedfordshire School Transport Team on 0300 300 8339 (Opt 1).
Please note, entitlement is based on CBC policy and if your child was eligible in Years 9 to 11 to free transport it doesn’t mean they would be entitled in the sixth form (Years 12 or 13).
Redborne Upper School
Redborne Upper School has contracted two local coach companies to provide two services on a bus-pass only basis:
- H14 - Woburn, Aspley Heath, Woburn Sands, Aspley Guise, Husborne Crawley, Ridgmont
- 3/80H - Shillington, Henlow Camp, Henlow, Shefford, Campton, Haynes, Wilstead
If you require a seat on any of the above two services and you are a pre-ad student, please ensure you complete the appropriate section in the online application form. We will then advise you of the finalised cost for the service you wish to use, once they have been set. Alternatively you can email Kirsty Robinson on kirsty.robinson@redborne.com to enquire.
Details of the current costs for 2022/23 are available in the attached documents for the 80H and the H14. Our website will be updated once the 2023/24 prices have been finalised.
PLEASE NOTE: Maulden has now been removed from the original route so please disregard this in the letter. The new route is detailed below.
Seats on all of these services are limited and are offered on a first-come-first-served basis and the running of any service is subject to sufficient numbers of students taking seats. This is reviewed on an annual basis.
