Changes to a couple of Stagecoach services are being made in early January. Not for the first time they’re being implemented on different dates, which seems an unhelpful practice.
From January 1st, there are minor amendments on service 13 to the first two Cambridge-bound trips (leaving 10 minutes later from the first few stops). The revised timetable is available here.
From the following Sunday, January 8th, there are more substantial changes to the 905 service (Cambridge-St Neots-Bedford). This is an attempt to “combat congestion and improve reliability” as the Stagecoach press release puts it. It’s been quite common during November and December for trips in the weekday morning rush-hour, especially when schools are open, to be 30 or more minutes late arriving into Cambridge (and then departing for Bedford half an hour late as well). So expect trips to be scheduled to take longer. The new 905 timetable can be found here.
Why can’t the 905 service move to the bus station in Drummer street, there’s more shelter there for passengers and also it’s not a coach now so doesn’t need the room for the lift for wheelchairs as it run by low floor buses
