Councillor Neil Clarke MBE, Cabinet Member for Transport and Environment at Nottinghamshire County Council, said: “It’s fantastic that we are always looking to improve our local bus services around the county and offer the best value for money.

“We have looked at passenger demand and where amendments can be made to timetables and routes so that the overall experience can be a positive one. Passengers will also notice that buses will be arriving at stops more promptly and will get them around the county, whether that’s to their place of work or to local amenities.

“It is important that these changes have been put in place, as passengers should feel confident that when they catch the bus, it will arrive on time. 

“And of course these enhancements wouldn’t have been possible without the BSIP funding and the fantastic partnership and working relationships we have with all of our local bus operators”
