New bus routes to launch
Swindon’s Bus Company are pleased to announce some enhancements from 23rd February, creating new links between key areas.
The 1, 1a and 1b will extend some journeys beyond Great Western Hospital to the bottom of the Badbury Park estate, and to operate some journeys via Biddestone Avenue.
This is great news for residents of Badbury Park, who will now have a bus service connecting them with Great Western Hospital, Swindon Town Centre, West Swindon Shopping Centre and Orbital Shopping Park. Watch out for a door drop being delivered with all the details plus some exciting offers for you to try this new route.
Funding has been awarded to extend Service 1B beyond Sparcells along Purton Road, and Westfield Way to the Orbital Shopping Park, creating a much-requested direct link from the West Swindon area to Orbital Park without travelling via the Town Centre.
Other changes from 23rd February include
- more Sunday buses on the number 11 between Swindon Town Centre and Oakhurst
- an hourly service on Sundays for the 15 (Town centre to Orbital)
