All operators will be running a Sunday service this coming Bank Holiday Monday 19th September, for the Queen's funeral. Go South Coast will also be pausing services across all their brands (Bluestar, More, Salisbury Reds, Southern Vectis, Unilink and Unibus) between 10am and 1pm so that their drivers have a chance to watch the funeral.
Other changes on the way:
First City Red 7 got a new timetable last Sunday to try and address reliability issues, partly caused by roadworks in St Denys.
First City Red 8 extends to the General Hospital from 30th October. We'll find out how often as soon as the timetable is released. On the same day, the 9 is withdrawn, surrendering most of Sholing to Bluestar 7, and there are new timetables on routes 3 and 13, which is rumoured to be dumping Peartree for Merry Oak.
Unilink has new timetables on all routes and a slight route change on the U2B in Glen Eyre from Sunday 25th September.
More introduce changes to many routes from Monday 19th September. Route 11 is withdrawn and replaced by a diverted X6.
First Wessex has new timetables from 18th September on routes 1, 2, 10 and X54. The X52 is withdrawn for the winter. Changes also on the 8, X51 and X53 from 9th October.
First Solent have changes to routes F1, F2, X4, X5, 7 and 8 from 16th October. The F3 is withdrawn.
Southern Vectis have registered changes to most services from 2nd October. Details on those as we get them.
