Some news from Plymouth Citybus

 Good evening everyone 


Here is some news from Plymouth Citybus


We are making some changes from Sunday 31st January 2021

Since the announcement of Lockdown 3 and guidance now given by the Department for Transport, we have been liaising with Local Authorities on service provision. Since the messaging has now changed to ‘Essential Travel’, several changes are to take place on 31st January in both Plymouth and Cornwall to reduce the milage we are operating.

Plymouth - Several services are reducing in frequency between 09.00 - 1530 (off Peak) as we want to ensure our key workers can still move easily around our network during the peak hours. We want to emphasise that "No services are being withdrawn". Service 8/9/21/21A/23/24/35/35A/35B/44/44A will all see a reduction. Services 34/43/50/51 had already reduced when we moved to school holiday timetables on the 17th January, so will continue to operate these times.

For full timetable information please visit the timetable section here.

Cornwall - Many of the services in Cornwall are of social need and at lower frequencies. Therefore no service frequencies will be reduced or services withdrawn. There are several school movements that will no longer run, as they are not required by the schools.

For full timetable information please visit the Tranport for Cornwall website by clicking here.

Plymouth Citybus services are running as normal

 Good evening everyone


Plymouth Citybus services are running as normal


https://www.plymouthbus.co.uk/news-service-updates/our-services-are-running-normal/


Our services will continue to run at normal levels across Plymouth, despite the Government’s latest Covid-19 restrictions.

However from Sunday 17th January 2021 we will be operating School Vacation timetables. This means the service 34, 43 and 50,51 will see a revised timetable, school service will be suspended (however Coombe Dean School will still have a service) all other services will operate as advertised.

We have been operating a full service timetable for several months, and current plans are to continue providing transport for all those who need to travel across the local area.

“We know many of those living and working within our community - whether they are NHS, supermarket staff, carers or other keyworkers - are still relying on us to get them to work,” said our managing director, Richard Stevens.

“So, just as we have done during previous lockdown measures, we will continue to serve them by operating a full bus service here in Plymouth. The special measures we introduced months ago are designed to ensure that public transport is still one of the safest places to be.

“Our team makes sure every bus is cleaned regularly with anti-viral wipes, and there are on-board hand sanitisers for our customers to use. We ask those travelling with us to continue wearing face coverings, unless they are exempt.

“These are challenging times for us all, and I would like to thank my colleagues - who themselves are keyworkers - for their incredible resilience and dedication. Without their efforts, many of those who carry out vital roles within our local community would be unable to travel.

“With this in mind, we will continue to provide a comprehensive bus service here. We are, of course, monitoring government guidelines closely - and we are ready to adapt our offering wherever and whenever this is deemed necessary.”
