Community Transport and Travel Booklet
For details about the various public and community transport options in West Devon please see the attached documents for The Okehampton and Hatherleigh Transport and Travel booklet, and Tavistock, Yelverton and local districts booklet. These contain a wealth of local information on community and public buses, taxis, and car sharing.

Ring and Ride and Community Car Service
West Devon Borough Council supports the Ring and Ride scheme in Tavistock and the Ring and Ride and Community Car Service in Okehampton. These schemes provide transport for the rurally isolated, elderly, and those who find it physically difficult to use conventional public transport. The service can also be very useful for young people and parents.

Ring and Ride buses collect passengers from their home and transport them to the town centres. Passengers have about 2 hours to do their banking, shopping, visit the doctors, or just have a cup of tea.

Passengers should ring a day before they need to travel (or Friday for Monday travel.)
