Sorry its been so quiet here this last week, Took a while to sort out my computer after another Windows Update messed a few things up. Hopefully back to normal this week!
Highlights this week:
- Stagecoach: new times for Park & Ride 200 with increased frequency on Saturdays. A new Sunday service for the Christmas period on the 101 and a new route into the city centre for the 1 from Tavistock.
- Plymouth Citybus make a couple of emergency service changes to school services 101/102 due to Derriford road works!

- Due to ongoing reliability issues with the 101/102 school services, we are going to make an emergency amendment as from Monday 13th November 2017.
- This is due to severe delays we are experiencing in the Derriford area. We are fully aware that this is unlikely to completely resolve the issue due to the roadworks and unfortunately this will mean an earlier start for some of the students who use these services, but at this moment we have no choice but to make the services earlier to try and improve the reliability.

- From 26 November we will be introducing an alteration to route 1 to improve access to Plymouth Railway Station. Buses from Tavistock will serve North Road East instead of North Hill, providing a much closer connection to Plymouth Railway Station. Customers who wish to travel from the station towards Tavistock will also need to board the in-bound service and then remain on the bus as it goes via the city centre and Plymouth University before heading back to Tavistock.
- The route change will apply to all journeys on the service, effectively doubling the frequency to the station when compared to the original X1 service. It will also provide connections in the evenings and on Sundays for the very first time, create a new link between Mutley Plain and the Station and further enhance the number of buses running directly from Derriford Hospital to the Station.

Stagecoach 1: Traveline's map has the inbound service running from the Station via Cobourg St and Mayflower St.
ReplyDeleteHi Graham, I think your new map for the 1 is ever so slightly wrong as after the 1 serves North Road East, it will still serve Mayflower Street from what I understand.
ReplyDeleteThanks to all who have pointed this out. I will update the Maps shortly!
ReplyDelete..... assuming Traveline is right, of course!
