812 Community Bus Service - Operated by Hackney Community Transport Group

The 812 Community Bus service will stop running on Friday 26 August 2022, with the last full day of service on Friday 26 August 2022.

Islington Council recently received the sad news that current provider, Hackney Community Transport (HCT), will no longer be able to operate the service.

The council understands that this will impact on service users’ daily journeys. The council will review how we can best support service users in the future.
