All change at the end of August

After a quiet few months, July has brought a bumper batch of service registration changes. This past week has been especially busy. Highlights include Plymouth Citybus and Stagecoach Plymouth services from 30th August. Nothing major, but there’s a change of operator for the 14, and the 43A is being dropped. The big news for many is the return of services to Royal Parade from Mayflower Street, following strong campaigning by passengers and some councillors. Another notable update is the Callywith timetables from Stagecoach, with a few routes changed.

Following a bumper session I now have timetables for most of these one the pages linked to below.

Well that was fun sorting out that lot. The complete loss of electric power yesterday afternoon didnt help. Nor did the eventual solution - a big diesel generator sat outside our house running all night - and again all day and tonight as well until they can come this week and dig up the path to replace the cables! Its great having power but the noise does make sleep very difficult!
