Ribston Hall Buses?

Help!, my daughter is travelling from Hucclecote to Ribston. We want to know whether we can get a free bus pass. Didn't pass for DR as it was our nearest grammar. But saying that, we are over 3 miles from Ribston.

If we cannot get her free bus pass then how much is it for normal transport?

I know there is a bus that runs from Hucclecote to Ribston and Crypt.

Unfortunately I don't think you will get a free bus pass. We have been discussing this on the buses thread. Bit of an unfair situation in how the county dole them out I'm afraid.

I am living in the wong direction for you so can't help with info on what transport is available. The school's themselves are often helpful though so you could ask at Ribston

I'm afraid you won't get a free bus pass.We are in the same situation-didn't pass for Tommies,Crypt more than 3 miles away but don't qualify.

Here is the link on the Gloucestershire County Council website for the timetable for the Stagecoach buses(they run a Crypt/Ribston service which my son uses).I think you will want service 860
He buys a 12 tripper for Â£17,which is the cheapest option available.

Anyone know about buses from STROUD to Ribston Hall ?
I think the 93 Nailsworth to Gloucester runs past the school.
Anything else ?
