New transport scheme for Henfield area

PEOPLE living in the Henfield area are set to benefit from a new community transport service.

For anyone living in Henfield, Small Dole, Upper Beeding, Bramber, Steyning, Shermanbury, Partridge Green, Ashurst, Woodmancote or Blackstone, there is soon to be a new transport service for anyone who normally finds it difficult to use public transport or who lives in rural isolation.

Starting on Wednesday 18 April with a shopping trip to Horsham, a minibus will run from the Henfield area on a weekly basis offering one off Dial-a-Ride journeys, shopping trips to Horsham and excursions.

The Dial-a-Ride part of the minibus service which offers one off journeys on demand will initially operate only on Fridays but it is hoped that this can also be extended to Mondays and Tuesdays in June.
