502A Churston ~ Slight Delay

We are finding the delay with the roadworks at Ogwell even more slow going than usual this morning then teamed with the refuse collectors we are now running a little behind.

Delays to 506 service

We are deeply saddened to advise that one of our coaches, which had been parked up today, has been found this afternoon with its tyres slashed.

We are absolutely devastated that someone has chosen to do this. Not only is it incredibly upsetting, but it is also going to cause a significant delay to our 506 service this evening while we work to arrange a replacement vehicle.

We sincerely apologise to all passengers who will be affected by this disruption and appreciate your patience and understanding while we do everything we can to get the service operating again as quickly as possible.

We will provide further updates as soon as we have more information.
