Advance Notice for Armed Forces Day Saturday 24th June:
— Plymouth Citybus (@plymouthbus) June 18, 2023
In addition to the usual #PCB25 service we will as in previous years also operate the #PCB25B service from Ballard House to assist the less able veterans and their families who park there. The bus is open to all however. pic.twitter.com/YgIBi161Ih
The SB6 change includes rerouting via Fowey Avenue in Shiphay, as a very limited replacement for the 35A/35C which was diverted away from this area in May.
ReplyDeleteSeemingly reduced to only 3 days a week + doesn't serve town centre either!
DeleteThe First Exmoor Coaster 'seasonal route & timetable variation' appears formalising the fact it is completely missing out Lynton on all trips (despite its timetable leaflet/Buses of Somerset timetable book suggesting otherwise and vehicle livery including both Watchet & Lynton which aren't served) as highlighted by Roger French Bus & Train User on his blog of 10 June 2023. Clearly a late decision and some passengers were seen waiting in Lynton where no notice advised them otherwise until a Filers driver mentioned the bad news.
