Travel Alerts
Mill Road, Burgh Castle
Due to the closure of Mill Road, combined with temporary traffic lights at Beccles Road we are diverting our service 3 to maintain punctuality across the majority of the route.
After Crab Lane the service will operate direct to Belton and turn right on to Stepshort, resuming usual line of route at Burgh Castle.
Unfortunately this means that Lords Lane, Laurel Drive and Mill Lane will not be served on services operating towards Burgh Castle. They will however be served on journeys operating towards Great Yarmouth.
We apologise to all customer affected by this diversion.

Guidance on CPCA Tiger ticket validity
Guidance on CPCA Tiger ticket validity
Please be reminded that CPCA Tiger U16/16+ tickets are only valid for travel *from* stops within CPCA. These fare stages are Peterborough, Thorney, Thorney Toll, Guyhirn & Wisbech.
This means that we can sell a discounted ticket from Peterborough to Kings Lynn - but we cannot sell a discounted ticket from Kings Lynn to Peterborough, as Kings Lynn is not within the CPCA area. Our drivers will not be able to offer you this ticket, and you will need to purchase a regular Adult/Young Person Single to complete your journey.
If you have any specific queries on ticket validity, please contact our Customer Services team who will be able to advise.
North Denes Road, Great Yarmouth (8)
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 & Friday 20th December.
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.
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.
