PlusBus Door-to-Door

The PlusBus Door-to-Door scheme provides an accessible minibus service for people who find it difficult to use public transport.

The service provides door-to-door transport to destinations anywhere within the London Borough of Camden.

The service runs Monday to Friday from 8.30am to 4.30pm.

Journeys are booked in advance and you may sometimes need to be flexible with the time you wish to travel. There are no limits on the amount of trips an individual can make.

You will need to complete an application form and provide proof of permanent residence in the London Borough of Camden. This can be done as follows:

Registered disabled card

Many organisations and providers offer discounts, special concessions or access to certain facilities to disabled people.

Sometimes it can be difficult to provide evidence without revealing personal or sensitive information. In response to this we have introduced a Registered Disabled Card, for current holders of Camden's disabled travel concessions.

registered disabled card


This card substantiates that the holder is Registered Disabled by the Council in accordance with Department for Transport guidance and relevant Local Authority Transport criteria. The Registered Disabled Card provides a simple and easy approach to accessing concessions or facilities available  for disabled  people.

Clients known to Camden Accessible Travel Solutions through schemes, such as the Disabled Parking (Blue) Badge scheme and Disabled Persons Freedom Pass scheme, can apply for a  Registered Disabled Card at a cost of £10. The card will be valid for the same amount of time as the holder's travel concession.

The card is available for free to all Older Persons' Freedom Pass Holders who qualify for a Disabled Persons' Freedom Pass.

Apply for a card

Please contact Camden Accessible Travel Solutions for more information and to purchase a Registered Disabled Card.
