We asked for your views on our plans to change some of our Rider bus services. These are mostly in the Lewes, Newhaven and Seaford areas.
Services affected are:
- 119, 120, 123, 126, 128, 143, 145
- school journeys on 92A, 92B, 92C and 121.
You can read details of the proposed changes, plus timetables for some services, in the documents below.
The closing date for comments was 3 February 2012.
Background information
Following a decision by bus operator Renown to terminate certain bus contracts, we need to review some of our Rider services.
We have looked at the current use of these bus services to help us plan for replacements. Due to our budget limitations and rising costs affecting all bus operators, some less-used services are likely to be reduced. However, in response to comments we have received, we are also planning some improvements to services.
Who could take part?
We wanted to hear from anyone who uses Rider bus services in these areas.
What happens next
We will take your views into account while developing the final timetables. The revised services will come into effect from 22 April 2012, following a tendering process.
