The Street, Acle (Coastlink X1/7)

During this time, services will not be able to serve any of their normal stops in Acle. Instead, services will operate via the A47, then onto A1064 Old Road to serve the pair of stops at Acle, Hermitage Close (near to The Hermitage) instead of the normal stop at The Kings Head.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause to your journey, due to these unavoidable works.
Stowmarket Town Centre (88)
Due to a major gas replacement scheme taking place across Bury Street, Tavern Street & Finborough Road between Monday 28th October & Friday 13th December - our Stowmarket Swift 87/87A & 88 will need to take diversion routes in two parts.
Part One (28th October to 8th November) of these works will mean that service 88 will serve the stop at Argos as normal, but will operate onto Bury Street, then onto Bury Road, St Edmunds Road, Windermere Road then as normal onto Onehouse Road, Chilton Way & Northfield View. Heading towards Ipswich, services will omit Bury Street and instead operate via Gipping Way to join normal route at Barnards.
Service 87/87A will instead move to depart from the Argos stop, as an alternative to the Bury Street stop.
On Gipping Way, a temporary stop will be in place at the cycle lane commencement road sign - just before the junction with Union Street West. Service 88 towards Ipswich will operate from here in lieu of Bury Street.
Part Two (11th November to 13th December) of these works will mean that service 88 will serve the stop at Argos as normal, but will operate onto Station Road West, then onto Bury Road, St Edmunds Road, Windermere Road then as normal onto Onehouse Road, Chilton Way & Northfield View. Towards Ipswich, services will be able to operate normal route into Bury Street and as a result, service 87/87A will operate as normal too.
We apologise for any inconvenience these works may cause to your journey, however these works are essential and cannot be delayed any further.
