Industrial Strike Action

⚠️ INDUSTRIAL ACTION - FRIDAY 9 AUGUST TO MONDAY 12 AUGUST ⚠️

We expect Truro Park & Ride (PR1 / PR1A) to be the only registered bus service operating a full timetable as normal. However, no services are guaranteed. Please check for the latest updates before travel as schedules may change or be canceled last minute.

We plan to deploy any available staff on a modified U1/U1A service between Falmouth and Newquay, focusing on early morning and late services for hospital staff. Again, no services are guaranteed—check for updates before travelling.

🚌 Sunday service will operate on the 24 and 29.
🚫 The Atlantic Coaster will not operate.
⚠️ All other services depend on driver availability, with priority given to the T1/2 service if possible.

**Note:** All services may be subject to change, so always check before travelling.

Services to the Boardmasters Festival will run as planned (operated by a separate partner company of First SW).
