Improvements to our services in Tamworth

Today Tue 21st Jul 2026

From 29 August 2026 there will be changes to some services in Tamworth.

Service 6 will gain an additional morning journey between Tamworth and Dunstall Park on weekdays and Saturdays. Service 8 will follow a temporary diversion during school peak times towards Hockley to avoid delays caused by parked cars, while journeys towards Tamworth remain unchanged. 

Service 10 will now run directly between Victoria Road and Ventura Park every 30 minutes to improve reliability. There are also changes to Warwickshire County Council supported services 65A, 76B and 785/786.

For full details take a look below:

Following customer feedback, there will be an additional morning journey between Tamworth and Dunstall Park. This will depart Corporation Street at 09:02 Monday to Friday, and 08:55 on Saturdays.
