New stop AA2 Hinton Road
We have installed an additional stop on Hinton Road (AA2) in an effort to ease congestion of buses and customers at the St Peters Road stop (which is now AA1).
This change took place from the first bus on Monday 6th July for the following services:
M1/N1 to Poole
M2/N2 to Poole
33 to Alum Chine
50 to Swanage
U4 to Westbourne (when it returns in September)
There is a flag at this location and the area is labelled up as a bus stop.
Timetables on our website have been updated to reflect this change and visual publicity have been placed around the stops.
