Keeping you moving this Christmas

We're wishing you all the festive feels! Whether it’s a cuppa with mamgu or a catch-up with friends, we hope you make it a good one.

Our buses will still be running to get you where you need to go, but some will operate a little differently and finish a little sooner. While we’ll aim to keep our app updated with the latest timetables, but for the latest accurate information to plan your journey check out our webpage here.

With the chilly weather setting in, please take extra care when travelling and stay safe. For live updates and any changes, don’t forget to check our X account.
