Northgate Beccles

Due to repairs to drainage works taking place on Bridewell Street in Wymondham, we won't be able to serve Wymondham Cross on Tuesday 12th November.

During this time, all services will arrive & depart from The Chestnuts stops on Avenue Road.

We are only expecting this closure to take a couple of hours - but are unsure of exactly when they will be lifted.
Please follow our X feed @FirstNorwich for up-to-date service information.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Due to off-peak carriageway works taking place on Green Lane in Reydon, it will be closed from Monday 11th November to Friday 15th November between 09:00 & 15:30 each day.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Due to resurfacing works taking place on Drayton High Road between Monday 11th November & Friday 15th November between 19:00 & 06:00 only - our Yellow Line 28/X29 services will need to take a diversion route. 

Services will operate via Middletons Lane, The Bull Roundabout, Reepham Road, Drayton Lane & Hall Lane. This means that stops between Hellesdon Hospital & Drayton Cock will not be served.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Due to a new water connection being installed on North Denes Road – service 8 will need to take a diversion route between Monday 11th November & Monday 25th November.

During this time, services in both directions will operate via Caister Road & Barnard Avenue, missing out all stops on Beaconsfield Road & Sandringham Avenue.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause to your journey.

Owing to Remembrance Sunday Parades across the First Eastern Counties network, some of our services will be subject to disruption on Sunday 10th November.

Please remember that we're offering free bus travel to the Armed Forces community, serving troops, veterans, and cadets on Remembrance Sunday and Remembrance Day (Sunday 10th November and Monday 11th November). Please find out more here.

Finally, our drivers may pull over to observe the two-minute silence at 11am as a mark of respect - your understanding would be appreciated during this time.

Due to due to resurfacing works & bus stop improvements taking place in the centre of Acle, our evening Coastlink X1 & 7 services will need to take a diversion route between 20:00 & 05:00 each night between Monday 4th November & Sunday 17th November.

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.

This alternative stop is about a 12 min/850m walk from the normal stops in the Kings Head - unfortunately our services are not able to serve anywhere closer to the town centre during this closure.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause to your journey, due to these unavoidable works.

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.

Due to National Highways project work taking place along the A47 between Hopton & Lowestoft on weekday nights only (20:00-06:00), our services will be on diversion between Monday 7th October & Friday 6th December.
