Hi all,

Just found this on the website of the Torbay Times newspaper. Wonder if Stagecoach will come up with something to replace the routes lost?

Part of the 25 and 67 has been replaced by new service 125, from https://new.devon.gov.uk/travel/bus/latest-news-service-updates/

Devon County Council has awarded a tender to Country Bus to operate new service 125, which will operate between Stoke Gabriel, Paignton and Marldon, starting on Monday 3rd April. This replaces the withdrawn Local Link service 25 from Paignton to Stoke Gabriel and 67 to Marldon.

The 125 will operate the existing 25 route between Stoke Gabriel and Collaton St Mary, then direct into Paignton Bus Station via Totnes Road. Between Paignton and Marldon alternate journeys will operate via Marldon Road or Maidenway Road.

Devon County Council will also be supporting a new Saturday service on Stagecoach service 13, which will operate between Marldon, Torbay Hospital, The Willows and Newton Abbot, starting Saturday 8th April 2017, replacing this section of the withdrawn 67.
