To cater for Devon residents who are key workers accessing employment, DCC is trialling an on-demand subsidised taxi service for Devon residents who are key workers accessing employment only.  This service is intended to replace those journeys which were previously made by bus – a subsidised flat fare will be charged.
The key car service is intended to complement existing bus services which are still running.  If there is still a bus operating on your route to work you should continue to use this, DCC officers will check this before taking your booking.

Requests can only be made by email and should be sent to devonbus@devon.gov.uk
