College Transport - Fenland

We now have our own bus routes around the Fenland region serving both the King's Lynn and Wisbech campuses.

If you're aged 16 - 18 at the start of your course and studying a full-time course, you'll be able to use one of the college buses which serve numerous towns and villages around the Fenland area.

The college bus pass (which can be used on our buses only) costs £200 per term. 

However, if your household income is below £50,000 per annual year or you are looked after child or care leaver, you will be eligible for our financial support scheme which leave you with nothing to pay - we'll buy your bus pass for you!

Bus passes options

• Available CWA buses and timetables

  The college will be offering the following bus routes for the 2026 - 2027 academic year. Our college buses only run twice a day; dropping students off in the morning and picking them up at the end of the college day.

  Wisbech campus

  CWA6 - Chatteris | Doddington | Wimblington | March | Coldham | Friday Bridge | Wisbech campus
  CWA5 - Newton | Tydd St. Giles | Parson's Drove | Murrow | Gorefield | Wisbech St. Mary | Leverington | Wisbech campus
  

  King's Lynn campus

  You must be studying a course in King's Lynn which is not offered at the Wisbech campus to be eligible for this offer.

  CWA1 - March | Coldham | Friday Bridge | Elm | Wisbech | Walsoken (Locomotive) | King's Lynn campus
  CWA1B - Newton | Tydd St. Giles | Murrow | Parson's Drove | Wisbech St. Mary | Leverington | Wisbech (Horse Fair)*

  *The CWA1B is a minibus which connects to the CWA1. For example, if you live in Newton, you would get the CWA1B bus and then change the CWA1 at the Horse Fair. The services always wait for each other - so there shouldn't ever be an instance where you're stuck at the bus station.

  These private bus are managed by the college and tendered to local bus companies. There is a limited amount of spaces on each bus and we encourage you to complete an application as soon as you can as seats will be allocated based on the ability to access the college through public transport (for example, there is no other way to get to King's Lynn from March) and then on a first come, first served basis. Due to the limited number of spaces, you may be allocated a bus pass for the public bus instead of one of the college's routes. 

• Public bus options

  The following bus routes service the King's Lynn and Wisbech campuses from Fenland. Unlike our buses, you can pay for these each day but they do not come onto the campus. Termly or yearly bus passes may be purchased directly with the company.

How do I apply?

• How to apply

  Applications for a college bus pass are made online through our financial support portal. This just gives us the opportunity to check that you're definitely not eligible to receive a free bus pass before we ask you to pay. Applications for transport and financial support will open in April 2026, ahead of our open days.

• What happens after I've applied?

  Once you've applied for your bus pass, our student services team will review your application, check whether you are eligible for financial support and then send you an update by email. You should expect to hear an update within two weeks of your application.

  If you are not eligible for financial support (i.e. your household income is above £50,000 per annum), you will be sent a link to our online store to pay £200 per term. You will not be allocated a bus pass until you have paid. These private bus are managed by the college and tendered to local bus companies. There is a limited amount of spaces on each bus and we encourage you to complete an application as soon as you can as seats will be allocated based on the ability to access the college through public transport (for example, there is no other way to get to King's Lynn from March) and then on a first come, first served basis.
