College Transport Guidelines

Studying with us from September 2025? We need to receive the first payment towards transport by the 22 August 2025.

You will not be able to collect your bus pass sticker for Term 1 at enrolment if no payment is made and therefore you will not be able to use the college transport system until this has been corrected.

For Transport application queries or Transport queries in general please contact Transport@moulton.ac.uk or call 01604 491131 Option 4

Bus Passes for College Transport

Your bus pass will be given to you (as long as payment has been made) when you are invited in for enrolment at the end of August.

Our passes are termly holographic stickers, and you will be invited to collect your next term’s transport sticker from a designated place in the last couple of weeks of the previous term. We operate a strict ‘no pass, no travel’ policy and should the bus driver refuse travel to you because you do not have a valid pass then you will need to make your own way to college.

The transport team will carry out spot checks on all our routes throughout the year, if you are caught travelling without a valid pass you will be liable for the full transport costs immediately, no exception.

Code of Conduct for Students using College Transport

If a driver has any suspicion that a student using the College Transport system is not abiding by this Code of Conduct, they will make their way to the nearest police station and the culprits will be removed from the bus.

Students must:

• Be at the pick up point at least ten minutes before the stated time
• Be on time for the return buses which leave from Gate 3 Holcot site at 4.50pm on Monday - Friday.
• Should the bus be late for any reason, students are asked to wait 10 minutes from your scheduled pick-up time before calling the Transport Department
• Wear a seatbelt at all times if provided
• Behave in a reasonable manner particularly towards others at all times
• Report unacceptable behaviour and/or bullying to the Transport Manager in writing. Your complaint will be dealt with sympathetically and in the strictest confidence.

Students must not:

• Smoke, vape, drink or carry alcohol or weapons at any time
• Wilfully damage vehicles or their contents or interfere with anything that may compromise the health and safety of the vehicle or others
• Carry knives and other sharp objects unless required for curriculum based activity. If carried these must be kept secure and covered up in a suitable bag/holder at all times.

If you miss the bus because of your own actions, it is your own responsibility to get home. Students going on visits / sports fixtures, who use College transport, must make their lecturer aware in advance. If a student arrives back at the College after 4:50 pm, because of a delay on the visit, the member of staff accompanying the visit will make arrangements to get students home.
