3rd September 2023
Service 1/2
We’re making changes to the afternoon timetable to meet the needs of students using this service:
Pupils attending Watling Academy should catch the bus from the Brahaman Way stop on Barrosa Way at 15:25pm.
Pupils at Hazeley Academy should make their way to the Dunthorne Way stop for the 15:39pm bus.
Route 1 will now call at Chaffron Way outside St Paul's School at 15:50pm Monday to Thursday and 14:40pm on Friday.

Service 5 will continue to run to Asda and then run in an anti-clockwise loop along Galapagos Grove, Santa Cruz Avenue, and St Helena Avenue whilst service 6 will run in a clockwise loop of St Helena Avenue, Santa Cruz Avenue, Galapagos Grove. Milton Keynes City Council are working to install new bus stops where needed.
In the Lakes Estate services 5 and 6 will both run straight along Stoke Road towards the Bus Station and CMK. If you are travelling to Windermere Drive hop off the bus on Stoke Road or on Fern Grove at Herbert Leon School.

UPDATE – due to over running building works at Galapagos Grove / Denny Lane, service 5 will continue to operate its current route and turn at Jersey Drive for another few weeks. Service 6 will start running the clockwise loop of Newton Leys as above from 3 September as planned, with service 5 running the anti-clockwise loop as soon as these building works are completed.

So there is a more coordinated frequency with route 5 between Wolverton and CMK there will be a minor change to the Sunday timetable
