Families across Cheshire West and Chester can look forward to more affordable adventures this summer, with free bus travel for children throughout August helping families explore more of the borough for less.
As part of the Government's Summer Bus Fare Offer, under the Great British Summer Savings initiative, all children aged 5 to 15 can travel for free on participating local bus services from 1 to 31 August 2026. There’s no need to register and no cost to families – simply hop on board and enjoy unlimited journeys throughout the month.
The Council’s itravel routes, which provide on-demand transport to rural communities, will be included in the scheme. In addition, Cheshire West and Chester Council is funding free travel for eligible children on its Park & Ride services through Bus Service Improvement Plan (BSIP) funding, giving families even more opportunities to travel affordably.

Residents now need to register to visit their local Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC) as part of Cheshire West and Chester Council's efforts to cut down on unauthorised use. This means that centres can be more easily and fairly accessed by residents who need them.
Registration is a one‑off process for each household. Once registered, you will only need to update your details if you change your vehicle, or you move home. Each household can register up to three vehicles, including one commercial type vehicle - automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras will identify all pre‑registered vehicles. Each household is entitled to 30 visits within any 12-month period (you can request additional visits if you use all 30 - conditions apply).

We have our penultimate Music Train coming up on Thursday 30 July and it has proved to be VERY popular! There are around 80 people who have already booked in at The Golden Pheasant so it’s going to be a busy one…..
So, if you haven’t already let us know you intend to come along, we would suggest you think twice……. there is only a finite amount of space on the train and in the pub!
Note: The final Music Train for this season is on THURSDAY 24 SEPTEMBER from Altrincham to Mouldsworth so book early to avoid disappointment!
