UPDATE INFORMATION ABOUT THE PASSENGER DOOR (29 JUNE 2025):

WE ARE PLEASED THAT THE AUTOMATIC PASSENGER DOOR ISSUES HAVE EASED OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS, THANKS TO THE HUGE EFFORTS FROM OUR TECHNICAL SUPPORT VOLUNTEERS. A BIG “THANK-YOU” TO ALL OUR PASSENGERS FOR BEARING WITH US.

Welcome aboard the
Harpenden Hopper

Any route issues or news?

Week commencing Monday 30th June 2025

A normal schedule is in operation this week.

Harpenden’s annual, popular Classics-on-the-Common event takes place on Wednesday 23rd July. The Hopper will be running a normal schedule and in addition, our 2nd minibus is providing a car-park shuttlebus service to bring passengers to, and take them from the event.

Our own next event is the HARPENDEN HOPPER PASSENGERS’ SUMMER TEA-PARTY laid on, as usual, by our wonderful volunteer drivers.

It will be on Wednesday 13th August 2025 - more details will be posted nearer the time. Meanwhile - save the date!
