EXTRA BUSES TO LIGHTEN SHOPPERS' LOADS

Emily Moore, Tuesday, November 29, 2011

HELPING shoppers to take advantage of the late night shopping this December, Mybus will run additional buses every Thursday in the build-up to Christmas.

Complementing the existing timetabled evening services, Mybus will provide extra route 4 services to Trinity Church and additional route 18 journeys to Le Marais. The route 4 buses will leave Liberation Station at 1835 and 2015 while the route 18 services will depart at 1920 and 2100.

These services will enhance the 34 departures which are already timetabled to depart from Liberation Station every weekday between 1800 and 2400. Those buses provide services on the routes 1 to Gorey, 3 to Rozel, 9 to Greve de Lecq, 12 to Corbiere, 15 to the Airport/Mermaid and 25 and 27 circular routes to St Mary, St John and St Lawrence.

Connex Jersey Managing Director Eric Le Roux said: 'We have worked hard in conjunction with Transport and Technical Services to develop the level of evening services in the winter and I think this year's timetable which features over 30 evening departures every weekday, and additional Friday and Saturday departures, shows that the service has been greatly enhanced. We hope that the scheduled services together with these extra routes to Trinity and Le Marais will enable everybody to take advantage of the late night shopping opportunities and enjoy the festive period.'
