    Stagecoach South West - Fleet News & Discussion

    To be honest I think axing 101 and running extra services on 1 makes sense as they pick up a fair few passengers on Mannamead Road corridor to city , a lot more than along Outland Road, I am surprised they don't divert their 2 and 2a into the Milehouse site though to make up for it ...rather...

    Stagecoach South West - Fleet News & Discussion

    Stagecoach Plymouth changes from September 5th seem to be appearing on Travelline etc.. Park and ride 101 is cancelled , George Junction to city centre served by enhanced service 1 via Derriford, Mannamead Road and Mutley every 10 mins (at least...more frequent again in peak times). Every...

    Any idea when the Plymouth review will be and predictions of what it is likely to contain?

    Stagecoach South West - Fleet News & Discussion

    What is? Unfortunately all operators are doing the same. Major cutbacks coming from Citybus/ Go Ahead in Plymouth coming September following those already done this year 1656273275 Does anyone know if Falcon will still be sold now SC not merging with National Express?

    Is it just Exeter services changing in July or do we expect changes/cuts in Plymouth and Torbay too?

    I thought it was more like the other way around?

    Definitely seen a jubilee decker on the 1 route in Plymouth lots over the last week or so

    We have still got a First Western National one on our stop in Plymouth from the 90's. That is 7 years after First pulled out of Plymouth of course

    Also possibly an older clientele that don't have access to Internet

    Stagecoach South West - Fleet News & Discussion

    Not sure I would count that as a service from Torpoint to Plymouth. It would be quicker to walk...lol

    Stagecoach South West - Fleet News & Discussion

    Yes I do totally agree that the 7 buses an hour was unsustainable . Also see your point re provocative act however I would argue that Citybus diverting their 42s into the park and ride at the George stealing customer off Stagecoach Park and ride 101 is also a provocative act

    Stagecoach South West - Fleet News & Discussion

    I would not say a bus war but surely Stagecoach should be looking for gaps in the market , left by other operators or not? It was not too long ago Torpoint had 7 buses an hour (4 from incumbent First and 3 from predator Citybus). Citybus lose interest in routes as soon as they push the other...

    Citybus are cutting service Plymouth to Torpoint to once per hour? Surely an open goal for Stagecoach opportunity there. Once every 30 mins maybe?

    That is a real shame if First have nothing operating out of Plymouth again... I was under the impression Plymouth City Council had been supportive of leisure services on their BSIP

    Could be that I suppose. Will have to wait and see

    From what I can see Dartmoor Explorer now runs Gunnislake to Exeter, with no service to Plymouth? Do I read this correctly?
  18. M

    First South West (Kernow & Buses of Somerset)

    Yes for Dartmoor Explorer becoming open top, possibly with bit more frequent service in summer. Polperro - Looe - Torpoint - Plymouth along rame peninsula (hopefully link up with DE) would be good.

    That makes sense. Thank you for the explanation.

    First South West (Kernow & Buses of Somerset)

    I think you probably do have a point there. Seems only real logical explanation. I don't know anywhere other than Cornwall where day tickets etc are not valid on P and R. I used daily and monthly tickets on park and ride in Plymouth both operated by Stagecoach and pre 2015 on First PR1 in...
