Interesting reading and a nicely presented summary as always.
ReplyDeleteHoping that it’s not just 16A to Kings Tamerton. One bus an hour would be really poor given it used to operate every 15 minutes
ReplyDeletelooks like alternate buses 16 / 16A every 30 mins between them
Delete16/16A still half hourly, just the hourly extension with the council funded 16A to St Budeaux
DeleteNice maps. Are they yours, Graham, or provided by the operator ?
ReplyDeleteThey are Traveline maps - which are now working again. not as good as they used to be but hopefully that will come soon!
