Reductions in government funding for buses mean we’ve had to make changes to our services in south and west Wales. These changes came into operation on Sunday, 29th October 2023.

Most services haven't been impacted, but we’ve had to reduce bus frequencies and hours of operation on some routes, and we’ve had to withdraw some others. This webpage contains full information on what's changed.

Change to the route of service 7

Following local discussions involving the developer, route 7 (Worle Retail Park - Locking Parklands via Weston-super-Mare town centre) will have a change of route at Locking Parklands from Sunday 1st October.

From this date, buses will now operate between the A371 and Nicholson Road via the full length of Bowen Road, in both directions.

The 'Cranwell Road' stops on Cranwell Road will be moved to the other side of the Bowen Road junction and will now be located on Nicholson Road.

UK Pride in Weston-super-Mare kicks off on Saturday 30th September at 11:00am with the #ProudToBe Parade, starting from Knightstone Causeway, finishing at Grove Park. The main event begins at midday at Grove Park until 9:00pm.
