Buses diverted in Warton for two weeks

 Passengers to and from Warton face disruption for two weeks in August following a road closure in the village.  A notice on Stagecoach's website explains:

From 09:00 on Tuesday 15th August, to 17:00 on Wednesday 30th August (Or until completion of the works within this period) Warton, Main Street, between Borwick Lane and Sand Lane,will be closed for Utility works to be carried out.

During the works, Service 51 will proceed from Carnforth (Haws Hill) then will divert via Market Street, Scotland Road, A6, and Borwick Lane to continue the normal route to Silverdale in both directions

Service 49 will terminate at Carnforth

For Service 51,Customers are advised to use the bus stops in Carnforth (Haws Hill) or Warton (Borwick Lane End)

The map shows the current route, that will not be served, in black and the replacement route in orange.


The section of route between Carnforth and Warton, Borwick Lane via Millhead will not be served, with buses following the diversionary route via the A6 (The numbers in boxes have no significance).


Presumably, the return journey on Kirkby Lonsdale Coach Hire service 550 (Morecambe - Levens) will also be affected.


Please note that as stated on Stagecoach's website the diversion may be lifted at an earlier date if the work is completed.
