Devon & Cornwall Transit 2022: Week 3

The weekly look back on what has been published on the Registered Local Bus Services site over the last week (two weeks in this case). As always click through for more details including timetables and maps.

Much of what follows has already been detailed on PT

• Stagecoach: Quite a few service reductions from this weekend, although they all appeared a few weeks back – so these look more like late changes to those changes!
• First South West: Already covered, these are the temporary cancellations mentioned this week. Repeated here for completeness although details have now been published on their web site and Twitter feeds.
• Summercourt (Travel Cornwall) a couple of cancellations
• Taunton School – new registration for a school service from Exeter
