Public transport
Linkbus service changes
Following a consultation earlier in the year, the Council has made the difficult decision to reduce the frequency of some of the Linkbus network as a result of necessary budget savings worsened by recent inflationary pressures.
To limit the impact on passengers no service has been completely withdrawn, but some of the services will now operate on fewer days. For more information on the changes, please visit: www.transportnottingham.com/linkbus
