Flagfinders’ service 19 changes from 22nd December

In the south-east corner of the county, and running into Suffolk, service 19 provides a direct link from a number of villages to Haverhill. And, by changing buses at Linton, into Cambridge.

The service has had a number of operators in recent years – currently it’s operated by Flagfinders. But from Monday 22nd December there’s another change – Stephensons will be taking over the service from that date. And with the change of operator there are revisions to the timetable, although these are relatively minor (and very positive!). All journeys that currently run will continue to run, and to the present timetable. But, in addition, the first southbound service of the day from West Wickham will carry on beyond Linton to Haverhill. And there will be an additional service to Haverhill in the afternoon, leaving Burrough Green at 1506.

The revised timetable can be downloaded from Suffolkonboard.

(Thanks to Suffolk County Council for this information. An enquiry about the change to the CPCA, who provide financial support for this service, went unanswered.)
