In 2024 our services close on 21st December for the Festive Season and open on January 2nd 2025.
Newcastle Community Transport
We provide a wheelchair-friendly, door-to-door transport service covering Newcastle-under-Lyme and the surrounding area.
Public buses and taxis often provide only a kerb to kerb service, and this can be a problem if you have mobility issues. Newcastle Community Transport (NCT) is different. Our friendly drivers can help you get to and from our minibuses. For the elderly and disabled, our door-to-door service can be a much-needed lifeline.
We are not a taxi service. We are a pre bookable community transport service that is dependent on volunteer drivers.
We have all wheelchair accessible vehicles.
