Service Notice Summary

My usual source for route licensing data is currently down, at least the CSV export I depend on to save time. It’s under investigation, and they hope to have it working again soon — if not, I’ll clearly need to come up with a revised plan!  

In the meantime, here’s a quick summary of new notices so you can see what’s going on. None of these will appear on my route pages yet due to the CSV issue and also because I haven’t been well in the extreme heat. Thankfully, it’s fairly quiet at the moment!

Service Change Catch Up

Apologies for the gap in updates, but it’s time for a bit of a catch-up. Over the past couple of weeks, several new service notices have been published, with many relating to Devon services changing from 24th May, along with a few older ones mainly in Cornwall. As always, more details and most timetables are available to view by clicking through to the main route pages.
