Revised bus timetables for Brighton and Hove

7:00am Sunday 12th August 2012 in News By Tim Ridgway, Local government reporter

Revised bus timetables have been announced.

Brighton and Hove Bus Company said the changes to routes in the city were introduced after suggestions from passengers over the last few months.

Some routes are set to receive more buses while others will see improved frequencies in the evenings and on Sundays.

Among the changes is a 23, which runs between Falmer and Brighton Marina via Lewes Road, every 20 minutes during the week rather than every 30 minutes.

A Sunday service will also be introduced for the first time.

The frequency of the 48 between Lower Bevendean and Brighton Station will increase to every 12 minutes while route 38 from Meadowview and Coombe Road will be extended from the Open Market to the back entrance to Brighton Station.

These improvements are being introduced with Brighton and Hove City Council after funding from the Department for Transport.

Among other changes are the 5/5A/5B from Hangleton to Patcham and Hollingbury to run every ten minutes Monday to Saturday while on Sundays it will be every seven minutes.

The 25 from Palmeira Square, Hove, to the universities will increase to every ten minutes on Saturday.

There will be new regular nightly buses for Peacehaven and the South Coast Road with night bus routes N12 and N14 running every night of the week.
