Park & Ride

Bath is now operating a Clean Air Zone in central Bath. While private cars are not charged in the zone - and you may be able to apply for an exemption or discount if you’re travelling in certain motorcaravans - we advise all visitors to consider using the Park and Ride. 

The city has three Park and Ride services, which operate seven days a week. Buses run into the city from all three Park and Ride sites at least every 15 minutes, with a journey time of just ten minutes. All buses are wheelchair and pushchair friendly.
