Travel update in Nottingham 4 - 11 June
Important changes to Linkbus services
Changes to Linkbus services will take effect from Monday 7 June 2021, following consultation earlier this year.
In light of the council’s serious budget challenges and following a public consultation, the council made the difficult decision in March to reduce funding to the Linkbus network. To limit the impact on customers, we have made a number of timetable changes, and withdrawn services as far as possible only where journeys can be made by another operator.
For more information as to which services will be affected and alternative travel options, please visit our website.
