Changes to bus services from 20th July 2014

[Andy C]

There appears to be two significant sets of changes

 

* Rotherham bus partnership

* Peak District services

 

The Rotherham changes can be found here: http://www.rotherhambuspartnership.co.uk/network-summary

 

The following Sheffield buses are altered as part of the package: 27, 29A, 31, 32, 34, 69, 70, 271, A1, X14, X55.

 

The Peak District changes can be found here:

This sees the TM Travel 215 no longer running on Sundays, the TM Travel 218 gaining a Sunday service and new First buses 240 and 244 introduced at weekends.

 

There are also some changes to buses that run entirely within Sheffield but are mostly the usual changes to high frequency services for the summer holidays.
