SPT's Mobile Travel Centre
What is SPT's Mobile travel centre?
In addition to our network of Travel Centre offices, we also operate a Mobile Travel Centre - the only one of its kind in Scotland - funded by the Rural Transport Initiative.
The role of the Mobile travel centre is to promote public transport and to provide people in rural areas within Strathclyde with information on local rail and bus services, express and long distance coach services (including travel to Europe), day tours, short stay breaks, and local ferry services.
What services are available?
The following services are available from SPT's Mobile Travel Centre:
- Journey planning.
- Independent information for bus, coach, rail, Subway and ferry travel in the Strathclyde area.
- Information for express coach travel throughout Strathclyde, Britain and Europe.
Accessibility
SPT's Mobile Travel Centre vehicle is fully accessible to mobility-impaired people and wheelchair users, with a tail lift provided at the rear and seating provided internally.
