As most of us approach the end of our last working day here at Travel Wright, myself, Paula and Colin would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to our loyal employees (fitters, drivers, cleaners, transport and office staff) who have all mucked in and helped out with the very sad tasks associated with us closing the business.

We are proud to say that right up to the end our vehicles have been maintained to the highest standards and sent out looking their absolute best; all of our work has been carried out with the same professionalism and care we have always strived to give.

We are going out with our heads held high

Thank you everyone; wishing you all the very best for the future

Update....
We are very sorry to officially confirm Travel Wright will be closing for business on Sunday 3rd April. Up until that date ALL of our bus services, contracts, excursions (including Wicked on 6th April) holidays and private hire bookings will operate as normal.

May we take this opportunity to say a huge thank you for all the lovely messages we have received both on here and from people popping in to see us - it is humbling to know Travel Wright have been so appreciated and well liked over the years.

We will certainly be taking with us some very happy memories - it has been a pleasure serving the people of Newark and its' surrounding areas.

David, Colin & Paula & all the staff at Travel Wright

Due to the continued closure of the A1 we will be unable to operate the 136 Service from Retford to Tuxford at 1640 today. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

04/02/2022

We do hope you will join us for our 'last ever' excursion to Skegness which will be on Sunday 27th March
Bookings open now!

We still have seats left on our excursion to Doncaster (Market Day) on Tuesday 15th February.

‘It is with great sadness we have to announce Travel Wright intend to close the business in early April.
‘We are looking to retire and have accordingly been looking for a buyer such that the business could continue as a going concern but unfortunately this has not happened. It has been a difficult decision to make and will be a very sad day for our family, our staff and we are sure our customers too.’ A final decision will be announced on or around 18th February.
‘We will continue to support our staff and would like to thank them for their loyalty and for helping us to achieve what we hope will be an honourable exit. It would be fantastic for the public to support us during the next 9 weeks or so – perhaps taking a last outing to the seaside, a short break or even booking a coach for a day out – we do hope so’
‘We can categorically state our business remains solvent and we will continue to honour all of our bookings; day excursions, holidays, services, private hire and contracts up to and including Sunday 3rd April. In addition we will definitely be operating the excursion to London to see Wicked on 6th April.
‘Anyone who has a Travel Wright Gift Voucher is encouraged to use it before the end of March. We will be in touch with all of our private hire customers who have bookings beyond 3rd April in the next few weeks’
We would like to extend a huge thank you to our excursion and holiday passengers, schools, private hire customers and businesses, indeed all who have supported us over the years; it will be a very sad day and we trust you will agree the end of an era in Newark.

David, Colin & Paula
