New Route Numbers for our New Forest Breezers

We are sure many of you will have already seen our newest brand – The New Forest Breezers.

They are operating on the X1/X2 and Bluestar 6, and we are gradually painting more buses to upgrade this route. We will have  five brand new British built buses arriving for these routes that are due to arrive in early June. 

As of Saturday 23 May, the Bluestar 6 will have a new route number, and it will become the New Forest Breezer 86.  The X1 will become the New Forest Breezer 81 and the X2 the New Forest Breezer 82. From the same date there will also be some reliability changes to the timetable which you can view here.  The route will remain the same.

As part of the rebrand we are also updating bus stop flags and painting the poles green.  As this is quite a lengthy process, we are starting this work now.  Therefore, you might see a new bus stop flag with route 86 on it, but we wanted to reassure you that it is still operating the Bluestar 6 timetable from these stops. The new flags for the X1/X2 will go up over the next couple of weeks too.

You can view the new timetable for 81/82 here and 86.

All single journeys are just £3, so why not love where you live and visit the New Forest by bus for a lovely day out.
