Transfers

Transfers are valid for 90 minutes. If you pay with cash or a paper ticket, ask the driver for a transfer when you board. You can use it on any other bus or on Wrenford Access within that time. If you tap a contactless card or use the mobile app, the system tracks transfers automatically. You do not need to tap again for your connecting trip.

  • Contactless cards: Tap a credit or debit card with contactless payment on the fare box.
  • Mobile app: Download the Wrenford Transit app. Buy passes, load rides, and tap your phone to ride.
