Nottingham bus war continues.
27/2/2011 Changes to a number of bus routes are planned in the next month or so as part of the on going "bus war". A summary is below: Bargain bus 2 The original bargain bus route 99p, has been increased to run every 20 minutes and renumbered bargain bus 2. Each journey runs 5 minutes ahead of Premieres Red 2 departures. Has Cotgrave ever seen so many buses? This time last year Cotgrave had 3 buses per hour, they now have 9. The new timetable can be seen here Bargain Bus 4 Bargain bus 4 has been extended to Long Eaton, and is now limited stop between Nottingham and Sandiacre (only calling at QMC). Between Sandiacre and Long Eaton, the service runs 5 minutes ahead of Gills Travels service 8. The first journey arrives in the city at 9:30am and the last return journey is at 16:05. This means the service does not run at the same time as trent bartons commuter xprss service. The new timetable can be seen here Red 5 This new service from Premiere offers a new more direct service into Nottingham from Long Eaton.
