Stagecoach Tweaks Timetables in Response to Feedback

Service 80 has additional off-peak journeys following our request.

Stagecoach's website, as well as having links to the emergency timetables currently operating also has a Feedback facility, allowing passengers who have been seriously inconvenienced by the new times to let the company know.  

The Bus Users' Group used the system when the temporary timetables for services 80 and 81 in the Lune Valley came into effect from Monday, reducing the service to peak-hour journeys toi and from Lancaster only.  We asked for a couple of extra journeys to allow passengers from the villages on these routes that have no shops to be able to get into town for essential shopping.

We are pleased to report that Stageccoach is listening and from today - Wednesday, 1st April, the extra journeys have been provided. The company is also making a few other changes to its new timetables from today and here is a summary of the changes.

All the new timetables are on our Emergency Timetables page.
