The weekly look at service changes across Devon & Cornwall. As usual please click through on the Licence number for more details and full route histories on the PTBS web site. Links to Traveline and other timetables and maps are provided below where possible, but always check with the operators own web site for up to date information before you travel!
This is part Two - of Three and includes all the Devon service changes mostly Stagecoach along with a few others under Tender from Devon County Council. Part three will appear here this week - Plymouth Citybus have quite a few services changing on the 26th May - but are leaving it very late to tell passengers about them. I will give them a day or two more in the hope that they tell us more!
In the meantime, the usual Sunday posting on the week in Social media will appear here Monday morning
