Carousel Buses

CAROUSEL UPDATE

TRANSPORT UPDATE - June 2026

We are currently finalising an exciting range of new and expanded transport options in partnership with Carousel Buses, designed to provide improved coverage, greater flexibility and enhanced travel opportunities for students across the region.

To view the new new Carousel Buses services please see here

 

Q. How do I purchase a pass on the Carousel services?

Passes will need to be purchased through Carousel direct, not through The Henley College. We recommend downloading and using the Carousel Buses app.

The cost and timetables for the 2026-27 academic year will shortly be annouced. For the 850 service, we recommend purchasing the appropriate weekly 18 and under zone tickets. For the tailored 620, 623, 624, 625 and 626 services, this can be paid in full or in a payment plan. You will be able to pay in 6 instalment payments, with an initial payment due to secure your space. The remaining payments will be split into 6 payments taken each month.

PLEASE PLAN YOUR JOURNEY AND CHECK WITH YOUR SERVICE PROVIDER FOR UPDATES. USING AN EARLIER SERVICE IS ADVISED.
