I'm aware that the U6 route has changed, though they didn't publicise this very well (I learnt about it by chance, when I happened to glance at a poster somewhere). However, they don't seem to be publishing a replacement timetable for months (until September) - it's only available online. In addition, the timetables at bus stops are also out of date - it's been like this for a few weeks now, it's not like it just happened today.

Is this normal for bus companies to be slow at updating timetables, or is Unilink only doing this because traffic is low outside of term time and they think nobody will care?

Which town/city is this in? Southampton?

In some areas bus companies produce timetables. In others it's the local councils/ITAs.

Some bus companies are very slow at publishing timetables.

My local bus company is usually pretty good at producing new timetables but they've not produced a new leaflet when they added an extra Sunday morning service past my house last September nor when they changed the time of it - though it does appear on bus stops and on line.

Southampton, yes, sorry. This is the official Unilink timetables I'm talking about (published by Go Ahead/Bluestar, presumably).

There is no leaflet even with the revised U6 times - it's literally online only.
