Timetables
The timetable and route maps for the X91 Chew Valley Sprint route are now live on Travelwest website.
Changes take effect from 2nd September.
The timetable for the Chew Valley Cat should be posted up by the end of Thursday. This bus begins on Sunday 1st September.
Anyone wanting a useful explainer can watch the recording of the webinar here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnXEByIiQPQ
One word of warning, the times given for the evening service on Friday and Saturday night have now changed from when this went out (because First Bus changed the times of their services so we needed to change our timings to ensure a connection.)
As the timetable leaflets from the Mayoral Combined Authority are not yet available (and won’t be posted to individuals in your area until the end of September) a printable version will be available on your notice board. We plan to put something next to the main timetabled bus stops before Sunday as a temporary offer until the formal signs are put in place.
Bus Friendly Business Campaign
We are also now launching our Bus Friendly Business Campaign (please follow the link below)
Help with Journey Planning
We realise that these two routes will take a bit of getting used to, especially for people who are less familiar with reading timetables and using bus travel so we will be attending a series of events over the coming weeks where we can help people journey plan and ask questions about the new services:
