company&service updates
Following a company review, there is going to be several company and service changes.
Firstly, we will not be continuing with the planned Merstham Garage and its operations. All three routes which operated at MM are going to be taken over by Shawline from next month. Instead, we’re building a brand-new state of the art bus depot in Epsom to replace our existing small depot in Epsom. The planned depot would accommodate approximately 30 to 40 vehicles. This is expected to be ready for summer 2024.
From 4th March 2023, there will be several service changes. These are summarised as follows:
