The traffic in the City Centre continues to cause problems for the bus companies, and its only going to get worse over the next few weeks. First are trying something a bit different:
SERVICE DIVERSIONS IN PLYMOUTH CITY CENTRE
Fridays and Saturdays from 5 - 20 December inclusive.
Due to severe traffic congestion around Charles Street and Charles Cross roundabout in Plymouth, on the Fridays and Saturdays between 5 and 20 December inclusive, between 1000 and 1600, we will be diverting some services as follows:
Service 2, 48, 93 and PR2 will not serve the bus stops on the Viaduct after they have left Royal Parade. They will operate via Bretonside and then pick up their normal route from Exeter Street.
Services 1/1A, 83 and PR1/PR1a currently using Cobourg Street and Mayflower Street or Charles Street from when travelling from Milehouse, will operate via Western Approach on the way into the City Centre/Royal Parade and not serve bus stops on these roads. These services will operate their normal route on journeys outbound from the City Centre.
All stops will be served along the diversion routes.
All other services will continue with their normal route if not listed above
We're sorry for any inconvenience this may cause but the delays are due to circumstances beyond our control. We are endeavouring to maintain a reliable service by taking these temporary measures. (CJ)
