Route Change for Bus Service 2

Local Combe Down residents voted overwhelmingly for a change to the bus route - some 80% of those who responded to our survey said that they would prefer the route to return to Bath via North Road. The changes will not operate until new bus stops are in place and the road closure in Combe Road is removed. Temporarily buses are going both ways along North Road at present.

When the one way loop is operational people will be able to get on at the Hadley Arms stop and ride all the way to the MoD and into the city for the same fare as people who get on at the MoD.

We were very pleased with the response to the survey and the next step is to meet Highways officers and Ray Hardy in North road to identify sites for bus stops.
