Go2 offering on-demand transit in Sevenoaks

Go Coach and ViaVan launch Go2, a new on-demand public transport service in Sevenoaks. The new service will provide rides using the new Go2 app as the city replaces seven fixed-route bus lines during the COVID-19 pandemic due to lack of ridership. In response to the COVID-19 crisis, Sevenoaks bus services 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8, operated by Go Coach, will temporarily be replaced by a new on-demand service. The three-month trial period is taking place because of falling passenger numbers and uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. The protection of bus services for key workers, such as National Health Service staff, and for those that have no choice other than bus, has been the key task of operators and Kent County Council’s public transport team over the past few weeks.
