🚌 Community Transport Survey Extended – Have Your Say! 🚌

Essex County Council has extended its Community Transport User and Awareness Survey until 30 October 2026, giving residents additional time to share their views.

The survey aims to understand how aware people are of community transport services and how these services are used across Essex. Your feedback will help inform future transport planning and support for residents.

If you would like to take part, search online for: Essex Community Transport User and Awareness Survey 2026

Alternatively, paper copies of the survey are available from The Parish Hall and can be collected during normal opening hours.

Please consider taking a few minutes to complete the survey and help shape future community transport services.

Survey closes: 30 October 2026

Please share this post with family, friends, neighbours, and anyone who may benefit from community transport services.
