Taxibus services


Across the county there are various taxibus services which provide affordable travel at times of day when it is not possible to offer a regular bus service. These include services for shift workers and some local routes linking villages and towns.

Taxibuses operate at set times with no restrictions on who can use them. Sometimes journeys have to be pre-booked and if there are no bookings, the service won't run. If other passengers are making a similar journey to you then you will share the taxi.

  • South Derwentside taxibus service is run by DC Taxis for shift workers. It goes to Consett and Stanley industrial estates via Langley Park, Esh, Quebec, Esh Winning, Waterhouses, East Hedleyhope, Cornsay Colliery, Cornsay Village, Lanchester and Burnhope. Call 0191 373 9227 to book.
