Bus timetables changes today

Changes to bus timetables on Island come into effect today.

The government announced the alterations last week, which include routes between Douglas and the South operating every 15 minutes instead of every 20, and an extra late evening service on Fridays and Saturdays between Douglas and Port Erin.

MHK Jason Moorhouse says the new times will provide services in the South with 'positive change and support demand', and believes the north will benefit from the expansion of the ConnectVILLAGES scheme to cover Ramsey and Jurby.

Full details of new timetables are available at www.bus.im or in printed booklets available from the Sea Terminal in Douglas.
