Getting Around in Winchester

Hoppa Bus Service

If you need to travel to the station from the city centre, the ideal way is to use the Hoppa Bus which is operated for the park and ride service. It is available for a small charge to travel to and from the station from Broadway as well as to and from the car parks. The service only runs during the operating hours of the park and ride service.

A Car Club for Winchester

The basic idea behind a car club is to provide a much cheaper alternative to owning a car; in short, to provide access to a car without the burden of having to actually own one. Car clubs can also play an important part in reducing pollution on our roads by making people actively think about whether they need to own a second car or, in some cases, whether they need to own a car at all.

The Winchester Car Club is operated by WhizzGo.

Bikeabout Bicycle Loan

Leave the car behind and head for Winchester to borrow a bicycle from the Bikeabout bicycle loan service.

For an annual registration fee of £20 (or £35 for two) you can borrow a bike as often as you like. On joining the Bikeabout scheme you will also receive a free cycle helmet, personal reflective jacket and cycle map.
