Devon Transit 069

Another massive collection, with several operators introducing their winter timetables. Plymouth Citybus are not making a lot of changes this time (in Devon at least) but have still not (as at Sunday 20th) actually released details of these changes on their web site**. Filers Travel cancel their 300 and 301 services. First Wessex make cuts to their Jurassic Coaster services out of Exeter (although have yet to officially announce the changes on the web site either). National Express have a couple of entries below, but nothing to see there! This leaves Stagecoach with the bulk of the changes below - and full marks to them for having all the details on their web site in plenty of time for all to see.

** At the last minute Plymouth Citybus have published details of the changes - unfortunately in the form of a large pdf poster which isn't the easiest to read or copy from! Details now added below

• From 3 September we are making changes to our Plymouth bus services, the first significant revamp of our services since we took over a number of routes from First Devon & Cornwall in September 2015.Key benefits of the changes are:
• Improved frequencies and links to Derriford Hospital
• Buses to Tavistock every 15 minutes.
• Many of the changes are possible because of the new bus priority infrastructure in and around Derriford Hospital. This means we can run all of our 1, 100 and 101 bus services via the Hospital. There will be buses up to every 7-8 minutes between the Hospital and city centre and buses up to every 15 minutes between Hospital and The George and Milehouse Park & Ride sites. There will also be a direct all day service between Plymouth Station and Derriford Hospital. 
• All 1 service buses will now run every 15 minutes on the same route from Tavistock through Marjons, Derriford Hospital and Mutley to the city centre. Anyone travelling from Tavistock to the railway station can change at the Hospital and board either the 100 or 101 which will go from the same stop. Alternatively, they can continue their journey on the 1 and walk the short distance from Mayflower Street.

• From 3 September we are making changes to our Plymouth bus services, the first significant revamp of our services since we took over a number of routes from First Devon & Cornwall in September 2015. 
• Many of the changes are possible because of the new bus priority infrastructure in and around Derriford Hospital. This means we can run all of our 1, 100 and 101 bus services via the Hospital. There will be buses up to every 7-8 minutes between the Hospital and city centre and buses up to every 15 minutes between Hospital and The George and Milehouse Park & Ride sites. There will also be a direct all day service between Plymouth Station and Derriford Hospital.
