Centrebus 154 – Service Changes

Following discussions with Centrebus, Leicestershire County Council has reached agreement to allow the service to continue to operate hourly (Monday to Saturday) with a revised timetable in operation from 26 January 2020.

There will be a minor change, which will see some off-peak journeys not serving Station Road and Reservoir Road in Cropston in order to improve reliability on the service.

An updated timetable is attached here.

This arrangement will ensure that the service continues to operate without interruption on 26th January 2020. The service will be reviewed as part of Leicestershire County Council’s Passenger Transport Policy and Strategy (PTPS). More information about the PTPS can be found in the section below.

Notices will be placed at stops along the route to advise passengers about the continuation of this service

If you have any questions regarding this notice, please contact Leicestershire County Council Customer Services on 0116 305 0002 or email choosehowyoumove@leics.gov.uk. 

Leicestershire County Council Passenger Transport Policy and Strategy

Following a period of consultation, Leicestershire County Council has adopted its Passenger Transport Policy and Strategy (PTPS) to ensure its passenger transport provision is fit for purpose and cost-effective. These documents enable the County Council to review all of the bus services it financially supports and to assess the case for continued support against the Strategy scoring system.
