TIMETABLE
CHANGES
Starting Sunday, 29th June, 1980
SOUTHAMPTON, NETLEY, HAMBLE, LOWFORD, BOTLEY AND HEDGE END AREAS
With the introduction of our 'New Provincial' services in Fareham and Gosport there will be some changes to services in these areas.
These alterations are based on the tremendous response to the major survey of bus travle made some eighteen months ago and will help us to run more economically.
Furher changes to our services in the Southampton area will be introduced in the summer.
