The service has limited stops at park and ride site, West Cliff, St Hildas Terrace and bus station and does not stop at other bus stops.

Please help us to keep everyone safe by adhering to these points:

• wash or sanitise your hands before and after travelling
• pay by contactless or buy an app ticket if you can
• we encourage you to wear a face covering on board the bus and in busy or confined spaces
• if you have any coronavirus symptoms, however mild, do not travel
• remember, it’s everyone’s responsibility to follow these rules, so play your part and stop the spread
• stay safe and consider your fellow passengers and our drivers

What we are doing to help keep you safe:

• we’ve stepped up our cleaning regimes, including more cleaning of points such as handrails, and disinfectant ‘fogging’ of buses at night to clean the entire bus
• screens are up to protect our drivers (please respect our drivers’ working areas by giving them space)
• we’re carrying fewer people on each bus, to help social distancing; please travel at quiet times and be prepared to wait if your bus is full. Signs on each bus show how many people it can carry
• we’re carry out additional cleans of the waiting facilities, you may be asked to wait outside whilst we undertake additional cleans through the day

Ticket prices are subject to change and you should confirm prices at the park and ride site prior to your journey. Parking is free to users of the service, with payment for the bus service, so there is no discount on the bus fares for customers not using the car parking facility. The cost for ENCTS pass holders is £1.60 for a day ticket.

The following restrictions apply:

• vehicles may not be parked on the site overnight
• caravans are not permitted
