Dial a Ride

Message from Colin.

Just a reminder that there is a Dial A Ride Service that covers our area. Note that it is a different Dial A Ride Service based in Shrewsbury that covers the Nesses and Baschurch - this one covers Ruyton XI Towns (and West Felton - the "old" OBC areas) There has apparently been some confusion as to whether the Oswestry Service covers our area. I have checked by phone and received assurances that it does, but if anyone has any problem then please contact me and I will try to sort it out.

Oswestry Dial-a-ride run a door- to-door bus service with six accessible mini-buses.To use this service you will need to become a member, the cost is £15 a year and this also entitles you to use our community cars service as well.

You will need to book your journey at least 24 hours in advance – more if possible. We will try our best to accommodate your request but if we are unable to then we will offer you an alternative time or suggest a community car if we are not able to cover the journey at all.

To find out more or to book a journey contact Qube Transport Booking and Enquiry Line – 01691 671571 available Monday to Friday 10am till 3pm. Outside of these hours please leave your name, number and short message and we will call you back.

For more information please download our Dial-a-Ride leaflet or if you wish to join please download our Dial-a-Ride membership form and send it in along with your membership fee of £15.


The web site with more information is http://qube-oca.org.uk/transport/dial-a-ride and the blue links above will display the leaflet or membership form. Note that there are membership and "ride" qualifications - it is not just a general taxi service.
