Sunday 30th Service Changes

Routes 6, 8, 19, 20, 23, 31, 35 – Timetable Changes and Operator Changes.

You may have noticed that there has been a lot of exciting things happening with Preston Bus recently. There have been a number of new vehicles introduced into the fleet, and our Deepdale Road bus Depot is undergoing a transformation.

With this in mind we have also reviewed our Network of services to ensure that our operation is relevant to the needs of our customers.

Following a successful consultation with our customers, we have endeavoured to use the feed back to finalise the changes.
