A Letchworth firm, not a call centre
Swift Cars is based on Works Road, so Letchworth is where our drivers start and finish their day. They know the town properly: the one-way loop round the station, the school traffic on Pixmore Way, which end of the Jackmans estate your road is on. You speak to people who live and work here.
Station, shops and nights out
A lot of our Letchworth work is short and practical. Trains to and from London and Cambridge at Letchworth Garden City station, the weekly shop from Garden Square or Morrisons, a lift home from Broadway Cinema or the pubs and restaurants on Leys Avenue and Eastcheap. We cover every part of town, including the Grange, Lordship, Westbury and Jackmans estates, and the business parks off Works Road and Icknield Way.
Hospital and medical trips
Lister Hospital in Stevenage is the main hospital for Letchworth, and one of our most regular runs. We also take patients to Addenbrooke's in Cambridge and to GP surgeries and clinics in town. Tell us your appointment time and we will suggest when to leave.
