It is time for the usual weekly look back on what has been published on the Registered Local Bus Services site over the last week. As always click through for more details including timetables and maps.
It looks like its busy but looks can be deceptive as a lot of these are old ones which are catching up, some from a long time ago!
Stagecoach: A few school timetables change along with a few more registrations catching up on changes over the last 18 months.
St Ives Bus: service suspension
Plymouth Citybus: These look like corrections to recent service amendments
First SW (Buses of Somerset) service reverts back to pre covid registration
Taw & Torridge: minor timetable change – details unknown
Crude: School service new timetable
Dennis Oates: All services cancelled – many of these probably have not run for years!
So of all those listed below only 2 are for future planned service changes: Stagecoach 12 &, Stagecoach IJKT,
