Back to school and Plymouth City service changes

It looks like 30th August is shaping up to be another ‘big bang’ day with lots of timetable changes. Another batch came through over the past week, and there are plenty more on the way. This week’s updates are mostly from Stagecoach, covering their Plymouth City services, along with additional Callywith College and Duchy College routes.
