Stop times - The times shown for many stops are indicative and you are advised to be there a few minutes before the times shown. Most originating / terminating / interchange / principal location point times are accurate and should be used as a guide when intending to travel from intermediate points.
Data Sources - Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 including the following;
- Ordnance Survey data
- Traveline National Dataset (TNDS)
- National Public Transport Access Nodes (NaPTAN)
Data Quality - Timetable information from our suppliers is typically accurate to within a few days.
We are not responsible for errors and omissions in such, but would consider it a favour if you could notify us of such so that we can investigate further.
When timetable changes have been published in advance information for a later date can be viewed using 'Day of Travel' feature under 'Departures'.
We do not normally receive details of temporary timetables (e.g. for major road closures). When we are aware of such we may provide a warning notice.
On bank / public holidays we try to provide a notice warning of this. Note: we cover the whole of the UK so the holiday may not apply in your location!
Timetable Arrivals / Departures - Next Departure listings show all scheduled departures for the rest of the day and sometimes a few departures after midnight. When available real time information is also displayed as either ontime or estimated. Absence of real time information does not mean that journey has been cancelled. Notification of cancellations or emergency diversions is not currently available. The reliability of real time data cannot always be trusted - a journey shown as 20 minutes being late may appear 10 minutes after the scheduled departure time! A journey which every minute gets later by one more minute maybe delayed by an incident en-route.
By default the timetable option form only shows journey originating and terminating points. To show all stops served submit the form and on the right hand side is a route icon. Click that and you can then see all intermediate stop points including journey variations.
Google Maps - These are used to show you stops in the location / postcode area you searched. Click a pointer on the map to select a particular stop.
Similarly a map of stops served is available on the journey option form. Click the map icon above the stop point select list,
