Bus passes available from Norfolk County Council
We strongly advise that you investigate season tickets offered directly from the operator, as these are likely to be cheaper and more flexible than our Norfolk County Council pass.
The public routes not provided by Easton College will bring you into Norwich city centre, where you can catch a dedicated bus from either Castle Meadow, Norwich bus station, Norwich rail station, St Stephen’s or Newmarket Road direct to Easton. (See the Easton College timetable)
Travel for students with EHCP
If your child has an Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP) there is no need to apply for travel assistance. The Travel Independence Training Team (TITAN) assess who is entitled to travel assistance and if independent travel training might be appropriate you will hear direct from one of them.
