SOUTHAMPTON - TRANSPORT DEPARTMENT |

| REVISED SERVICES
11 / 11A |
| |
| As from Sunday, 3rd October
(1971), Service
11 will be revised; and a new Service 11A
will be introduced. |
 |
| This revision of Services
is associated with changes on Services 13
and 15, and the withdrawal of Service 15A.
The object of this is to reduce the number
of 'buses proceeding along the Avenue (where
there are few passengers) and to provide direct
services to some areas where none exist at
the present time. |
|
| Service 11 will operate
over its existing route between Swaythling
and the City Centre, but terminating at the
Docks during peak periods, at the Royal Pier
during Monday to Saturday daytime, and at
City Centre (Vincents Walk) evenings after
7 p.m., and on Sundays. At the northern end
of its route, Service 11 journeys will be
extended via Burgess Road and Violet Road
to terminate at Glen Eyre Schools. On its
return to Swaythling, this service will divert
via Aster Road and Honeysuckle Road to enable
both Services 11 and 13 to Portswood to use
the same stop at Swaythling Jubction.
In Burgess Road, between Violet Road and Swaythling,
Service 11 will replace all existing Service
15A journeys (see Service 13 / 14 / 15 leaflet).
Note :- Passengers from the Bassett Green
area will be served in future by Services
13 and 15 only - not Service 11. |
|
| Service 11A is a new
route, planned to give residents in the Glen
Eyre and Winn Road / Brookvale Road areas
a direct and convenient connection with both
Portswood and the City Centre. Additionally,
this route will provide a direct service from
the growing University area to the City Centre.
From City Centre (Vincents Walk) Service 11A
will operate via the existing 15 route (Above
Bar, London Road, The Avenue), then via Winn
Road, Brookvale Road and Portswood Road. From
Portswood Junction journeys will operate via
the existing 4 / 6 route (Shaftesbury Avenue,
Welbeck Avenue, University Road) to the Stile
Inn, and then via Burgess Road and Glen Eyre
Road to terminate at Glen Eyre Schools. |
|
| Services 11 and 11A form
a loop service, and because of this passengers
can travel without changing from a point one
side of the terminus at Glen Eyre to the other,
e.g. a passenger boarding at the University
may travel to Swaythling. |

| REVISION OF
SERVICES 13, 14, 15 and 15A |
| |
| As from Sunday, 3rd October
(1971), certain
changes will take place affecting the above
Services. |
|
| The revision of these
Services is associated with the changes of
Services 11 and 12, and the provision of a
new Service 11A. The object is to tailor all
these Services to passenger demand by reducing
frequencies where there are fewer passengers;
providing more frequent journeys where passenger
demand has increased; and by providing services
to certain new areas. |
|
| SERVICES 13, 14 and 15
|
| The routes of these Services
remain unchanged, except that Service 13 (in
place of Service 11) is extended from Swaythling
via Stoneham Lane to Bassett Green to link
up with Service 15. Although timings have
been changed, basic frequencies will remain
unaltered except during Monday to Friday mornings,
and Saturday afternoons, when the frequency
of each Service will be increased to every
10 minutes. |
| Note
:- Passengers from the Bitterne Park
and St. Denys areas will in future be able
to use both Services 12 and 14 to City Centre. |
|
| SERVICE 15A |
| Journeys on Service 15A,
i.e. From City via Burgess Road to Swaythling
and vice versa, will no longer operate. Passengers
wishing to travel from the City to the section
of Burgess Road between Violet Road and Swaythling
should in future use the revised Service 11
via Portswood. Similarly, passengers from
this area to the City should use Service 11
(boarding the 'bus on the "North"
side of Burgess Road), or Service 15 via the
Avenue from the Honeysuckle Road School or
Broadlands Road stops. |
|
| Changes in the stops
at Swaythling Junction will take place. The
Service 15 stop (to Bassett Green and City)
will remain unaltered, but both Services 11
and 13 to Portswood will use the stop outside
of the Swaythling Oxfam Shop. The stop in
Burgess Road (at the side of the Hampton Park
Hotel) will be for Service 10 (to Mansbridge),
and Service 11 (to Glen Eyre). |
|
| For passengers travelling
on Service 15 between Swaythling and Town
Junction / Classic Cinema, a special fare
of 5p will apply. |
