New bus timetable and fares begin today

A new bus timetable is now in place as well as increases to adult tickets.

Last week Bus Vannin announced that their routes would be changing for the first time since 2013.

Adult fares will also rise by either 10p or 20p, with children's fares at half price remaining the same.

The range of Go cards will undergo a similar revision.

Other changes include the Go Places band A and F tickets being scrapped, due to a lack of use, along with the Child Heritage Explorer.

While these cards will no longer be able to be topped up, customers will be able to use their remaining credit after Tuesday’s changes come into effect, along with all other Go card holders.

The new timetables are available online via the website here, as well as booklets at the Welcome Centre in Douglas, IOM Airport, House of Manannan in Peel and all bus stations.
