Community Transport comes in 3 different forms.
Hartley Wintney Shopper Service.
The Hampshire County Council Call & Go service has been replaced following a review of the service across the Hart District Council area. The new services, which have Hampshire County Council and Hartley Wintney Parish Council working together to provide more flexible services, are aimed at increasing the number of people who use them.
So if you do not have access to a car; have a mobility or sensory impairment, which means that you are unable to or experience difficulty or discomfort in using bus services; or you live more than 400 metres from an available bus service/stop, please contact Hampshire County Council on 0845 602 4135.

Yelabus originally formed to transport people to and from a day centre in Yateley, with Big Lottery funding provided between 2000 and 2006, they now provide assistance to a wide variety of groups and organisations mainly for those on the north side of the M3. This is a group based arrangement whereby groups whether they be the Guides, Scouts or a people from a given locality who form a shopping club register as users and then hire a minibus to serve their needs. For more details of how to form a group, arrange trips and the cost please call Tracey on 0771 9799263. The cost of hiring a minibus meets a large proportion of the running costs of the vehicle and for a paid driver, but some subsidy is provided by both Yateley Town Council and Hampshire County Council.
