Our application with Portsmouth City Council is pending final verification. Transport services will begin only after the operator licence is granted and operational checks are complete. General future-service discussions and driver expressions of interest are welcome.
Booking and account activation are unavailable until licence grant.
Eight services. One considered approach.
Explore our intended services and discuss future requirements. Vehicle suitability, insurance, personnel checks and any contract-specific training must be verified before assignment.
01
School Transport
We are preparing pre-booked school transport for local authorities and institutions across Portsmouth and the wider Hampshire County Council area. Proposed routes will focus on safety, punctuality and clear passenger coordination. Services will begin only after operator licensing, with suitable personnel, vehicles and contract requirements verified before assignment.
02
Private School Runs
Regular morning and afternoon school runs are planned for private families who value consistency and clear communication. Proposed routes will serve Portsmouth and Waterlooville postcodes around agreed school times and collection points. Service activation remains subject to Portsmouth licensing, suitable vehicle availability and personnel checks.
03
Regular Contract Transport
Recurring transport is planned for businesses, schools and community requirements in Fareham, Havant and Portsmouth. Future contracts will set out schedules, coordination arrangements and agreed corporate invoicing terms. No account or transport contract becomes active before the operator licence and the relevant operational checks are confirmed.
04
Accessible Passenger Transport
Accessible transport is planned for passengers with reduced mobility or wheelchair requirements across the PO postcode area. Boarding needs, wheelchair dimensions, restraint systems and assistance will be assessed individually for safe and dignified travel. Suitable adapted vehicles and appropriately prepared personnel must be verified before any future route is agreed.
05
Long-Distance Journeys & Airports
We are preparing private hire transfers from Portsmouth and Hampshire to London Heathrow (LHR), Gatwick (LGW), Southampton (SOU) and other UK destinations. Fixed-price quotes, luggage requirements, flight details and return arrangements will be agreed individually after service activation. Cross-boundary journeys and dispatch must follow applicable licensing requirements; no live external-app integration is claimed.
06
SEND Transport (Special Educational Needs & Disabilities)
We are preparing respectful transport options for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities, subject to suitable drivers and vehicles being available. Individual routines, communication preferences and any escort or accessibility requirements will be discussed with the family or commissioning organisation. Enhanced DBS status, safeguarding preparation and role-specific training will be verified where required before assignment, alongside Portsmouth licensing and contract checks.
07
