Changes to bus service timetables from September 3
There are a number of changes to bus services across Bristol, Bath, North Somerset and the rest of the West of England from September 3. Please check timetables (below) before travelling.
The changes are part of First Bus West of England's bi-annual review of routes to help improve bus services across the region.
While there are few or minor changes on some routes, in other areas First Bus has made bigger changes to timetables and introduced new routes to improve reliability and punctuality.
With lots of improvements being made across the bus network, including increased frequencies, and with adult and child single fares remaining at £2 and £1 respectively and First's on-board Tap On, Tap Off technology making payment quick and easy, the company is making bus travel accessible to even more people.
The revised timetables are below, and more detailed information about what is changing can be found on First Bus' website.
