Is there a College bus service?

We offer four Free College Bus Services. The bus routes are FREE for you if you are a student at Barnsley College. At this time, the buses are running on a “first-come, first-served” basis and students do not need to book a place to access these services. Each route will operate in the morning in order to get you into College before lessons start and a return service will operate from Old Mill Lane campus at the end of the day.
