Changes to First Bus Service


On Sunday 14th April 2013, new timetables will be introduced on the Norwich 13 Turquoise line, 12/14/15 Green Line and the 28/29 Yellow Line. And our X2 service from Lowestoft to Norwich will also be operating every 20 minutes during the day on Monday to Saturday.

The Norwich 12, 13, 14 & 15 services have some minor changes to their current times, the new timetables are available to download on our website or to pick up from any local timetable outlet. There are no changes to these routes, or to evening and Sunday services.


Some Norwich 29 journeys will be renumbered '28A' and will serve Thorpe Marriott as normal. There will also be an extra journey from Norwich City Centre to Thorpe Marriott at 1910, and the last bus is now 2300 from Castle Meadow.
 

First have also introduced a new afternoon journey called '29S' which offers students from Taverham High School a bus home calling at Thorpe Marriott.


The X2 Lowestoft to Norwich service will see some additional journeys added during the morning peak period into Norwich, and we have added some extra journeys to Hales which will provide an hourly service. The X2 route and all evening and Sunday journeys are unchanged.

Reduced Parking Availability - Building 57

The construction of Building 57 will unfortunately result in a reduction of parking bays.  Every effort has been made to keep the number of bays lost to a minimim whilst we build the much needed additional teaching and learning space.  There is still ample parking available across campus particullarly at the Blackdale Annexe (scratchcard users or pay and display only) or at the Village (swipe card barrier access).  


Price Freeze for Annual Bus Passes

We are very pleased to announce prices for the existing annual season tickets have been held at 2011/12 prices; 12 months unlimited travel across zones 1 – 5 for remains at just £210 and the network ticket at just £380

Insurance for tickets will rise from £20.00 to £25.00.

Dawn Dewar Transport Co-ordinator said “all those at the negotiating table recognised these are difficult financial times; we all wanted to ensure we gained the best deal possible for those we represent which meant tough negotiations so I am very happy we have been able to avoid a price increase”.
Fran Poole, Retail Services Manager for the Union of UEA Students added “the 10 month ticket has been introduced as a direct result of listening to students and is great value; once again we can say this University offers the best priced annual season ticket for bus travel in the UK”.
