Dolen Teifi Mini Buses

Group Hire

Dolen Teifi has several community minibuses available from 9 to 17 seats including the driver), and most are wheelchair accessible.
You will need a MiDAS certificated driver and sometimes we can put you in touch with one, or we can train your drivers for you.
The minibuses are available to groups / organisations to provide access to essential community services, which promote community activity, social inclusion, community cohesion, regeneration, rural health, well-being, and recovery from mental health problems.

What you need to know

• The minibuses are run under a Section 19 permits, (this is a regulation permit provided by the Traffic Commissioners) seen as good practice by CTA UK.
• The minibuses can be driven without the driving licence D1 entitlement as the vehicles when fully laden will be under 3.5 tons. This allows individuals over the age of 25 with two years driving experience to drive the vehicles (as long as they are not paid).
• You are charged per mile for your journey which is invoiced once your journey is completed. 
• Unfortunately, we are not allowed to accept bus passes - although the Community Transport sector is lobbying for this
• All drivers need to have gone through MiDAS training before they can drive the bus.
