About Blackburn with Darwen Community Travel
Blackburn with Darwen Community Travel provides reliable, pre-booked private hire transport for groups of 1–16 passengers across the UK. We specialise in airport transfers, cruise and seaport travel, private hire for events, and Blackburn Rovers matchday transport, offering a planned and dependable alternative to taxi services.
Although the business has been operating for over three years, our team brings more than 35 years’ combined experience in the passenger transport industry. This experience shapes how we work — with careful planning, clear communication, and a strong focus on customer reassurance.
How We Work
We believe communication is key. Once your booking is confirmed, we remain available to discuss any changes or updates, whether your journey is days or months away. Ahead of travel, we contact you to reconfirm the details of your booking, giving you peace of mind that everything is in place and that you haven’t been forgotten.
All journeys are pre-booked and planned in advance, allowing us to deliver a smooth, stress-free experience from pickup to drop-off.
Safety, Compliance & Peace of Mind
Blackburn with Darwen Community Travel operates under a PSV Operator Licence, ensuring our vehicles meet strict safety and maintenance standards. Vehicles undergo 8-weekly maintenance inspections to minimise the risk of issues and ensure reliability on every journey.
Our services are supported by:
-
Fully insured vehicles (public liability and vehicle insurance)
-
Enhanced DBS-checked drivers
-
A fully qualified PSV Transport Manager
-
Professional, experienced drivers familiar with long-distance and group travel
Group Travel Made Simple
We do not operate as a taxi service. Instead, we provide tailored group transport, allowing passengers to travel together comfortably and efficiently. For journeys requiring additional space, we can also supply a watertight 8ft x 4ft trailer with a 750kg load capacity, ideal for extra luggage or equipment.
Whether you’re travelling to an airport, a cruise port, a sporting event, or a private function, our aim is to make your journey safe, organised, and stress-free.
