Nottingham City Transport buses will begin serving the Rivendell estate near Netherfield from Sunday (27) after two routes were extended.
Both Red Line 45 and Lilac Line 24 buses will now call at stops on the estate.
In the City Centre, Lilac Line 24 terminates on King Street, just off Old Market Square.
Red Line 45 operates a one way loop around the City Centre. Buses stop at Victoria Centre, Angel Row (for Old Market Square), Maid Marian Way and Canal Street near Nottingham College which is a short walk to the Bus and Railway Stations.
The Lilac Line 24 bus connects with Lilac Line 25 near Park Medical Centre on Burton Road, where you can change buses and travel to Mapperley and Arnold.
A spokesman said: “We’ll be using the roundabout at the Magenta Way / Coot Way junction to turn our buses around. Please do not park in any of the bricked areas, as we need this space to turn.
“Along Magenta Way, especially near the Care Home, please do not park opposite other vehicles, as this can make it hard for buses – as well as fire engines and bin lorries – to make it through. Thanks for your support.”
Great news -will be handy for me
I would like a service that went from town and went to Colwick, Netherfield, Carlton and Mapperley directly.
More services to Arnold please
There are loads of buses to Arnold you doughnut
There’s a sufficient service for the city centre, but it would be nice to have a bus from Arnold that goes down Colliery way for Gedling Country Park, on to the new big Sainsburys, Cowick Park, along the Colwick loop road and into the city.
If they end up building a new estate near Leapool island (or reviving the park and ride idea) then that area will need a bus, so perhaps that could be the solution, Leapool to the city via the major parks. It could also serve the bottom and top ends of Coppice Road (currently without a regular service) on its way up to Mapperley plains road as well as offering a bus stop much nearer for the new houses near Mellish rugby ground.
More buses to Arnold than anywhere else, probably so you can leave quickly once you get there.
Who gets bus a to raining Carlton each than other back way a on Tuesday’s ?
