Travelling by bus
All the college buses drop off and pick up from the campus and the return journeys follow the same routes as the inward journey, only students and staff of the college are allowed on them. Exact pick-up points, routes and arrival/departure times for September 2025 are now complete and are all in the below map and route schedule. We have added new pick-up points in Newcastle-Under-Lyme, Stoke-on-Trent, Chester, Wrexham and Shrewsbury. Cost of the bus passes will be published at the end of May 2025. Pick- up points are carefully considered by the college, and we are not keen to alter or add stops in that academic year. Current routes are constantly reviewed with new routes developed for the following year if required; we would advise you to get in touch and let us know where you will be travelling from so, we can assess your individual needs. Whatever your transport queries, we will try to help wherever possible.
Please note that this timetable is subject to change, ensure you check the timings for your pick- up point again at the beginning of September.
Reaseheath will be subsidising transport fees by over £2 million to help ensure that the cost of travel remains as small as possible and that we continue to offer a cost effective, safe and comfortable method of travel to and from campus.
