Nottsbus On Demand is a flexible way to travel by bus - simply book your journey using the Nottsbus On Demand App.

The on demand service was initially launched as a pilot in the villages around Retford, Ollerton and Newark and in the evening in Mansfield. A new zone in West Rushcliffe was then launched in spring 2023. 

Following successful trials in these areas, the service has now been rolled out to south Newark. The new South Newark Zone has replaced the 91, 856 and the 857 bus services, offering residents better transport links, which will allow them to make journeys more frequently and to new destinations. 

Nottsbus On Demand services do not follow a fixed timetable. Instead, they operate on a flexible, on demand basis, allowing you to travel between bus stops and designated points within the travel zone, where there are currently no local bus routes.

You can also use the service to connect to other bus services if you want to go further out of the area.

The easy way to book and track a journey is via the Nottsbus On Demand App. You can also book by phone.

This is a new service and we’re here to help you every step of the way. Give it a go and let us know what you think, your feedback will help shape Nottinghamshire County Council's future investment in bus services around Nottinghamshire.

The new Nottsbus On Demand services have been funded in partnership with UK Government.
