They’re not traditional bus routes so the need for pre notification to customers using them for commuting etc doesn’t exist. <br />Being largely new, with vehicles that have been laid up or only recently taken into fleet and drivers who have had to be route learned and familiarised on all aspects of delivery, the conscious decision has been made to ‘soft launch them’, so no public fanfare or launches. <br />The new website for Adventures by Bus is ready to go live at the end of the week, the BoS and CbK websites will be suitably amended during the week to separate them out and point at each other appropriately.
