COVID-19 Crisis

 

This is a difficult time for all, and the world changed with the announcement of a national lockdown. Passenger numbers

have fallen to 15% or less of normal numbers.  With the help of Local Authority partners, and our staff who are being

magnificent, we continue to provide a reduced service on most routes.

 

We are following government advice at all times to ensure the safety of our staff and passengers. Currently we are in

no danger of closing down and ceasing operations.

 

Advice from the Government might change, so please keep an eye on our website.

 

Thank you for your patience.

 

Please note that bus stops and third party websites will not be updated. Currently our own website is the best

source of up-to-date information.

 

All concessionary bus passes are now valid before 9.30am Monday to Friday. If you use your pass at this time and normally pay a fare, please show your pass to the driver instead and you will be issued a ticket without having to place your pass on the card reader. If you are unsure please ask your driver.

 

All of our buses accept contactless payments - we encourage you to make use of this facility to avoid any unnecessary contact risk, and if there is space on the bus please try and sit at least one row of seats away from other passengers.

 

All service changes planned for March and April 2020 will be postponed until further notice.
