Some information about the mysterious Torbay Community Development Trust ("Our Bus" route 61 -
ReplyDeleteThis is indeed a new route covering part of the former Our Bus/Local Link route 61, between Livermead (Broadley Drive), Torquay Town Centre and St Luke's Road. Its revival has been made possible due to a unique subscription service; around 50 local households have committed to paying between £3.50 - £5.50 a week to underwrite the service. It currently operates seven round trips on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, with volunteer drivers. As it is a registered local bus service ENCTS passes are accepted, and the reimbursement from these also goes towards offsetting the cost of operating the service. For non-passholders graduated fares are available.
