The 3 doesn't go on the prom? Or are you walking to the bus stop of the same name on Warbreck Drive?

Bus Times shows it as stopping at North Shore opposite Lowther Avenue.

[Xenophon PCDGS]

I cannot find this service anywhere....I see a 2226 departure?

As that posting that was originally made (14 minutes later than your suggested 2226 time) arrived in the very early hours of Tuesday morning and led to the application of the overnight travel relaxation rule, will matters now need changing on the postings that followed on?

Entry amended. Presumably a six minute connection is acceptable.
