Stagecoach has announced details of its bus service timetables over the Christmas & New Year period and they are similar to those in recent years.
As usual, on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve, two of the busiest days for evenings out when people would prefer not to drive and when taxis are very difficult to come by, all the buses will be safely tucked up in the depot not long after 7pm. Nor will they stir from their slumber the following day, as Christmas Day and New Year’s Day will see no bus services at all in the Lancaster District.
Things are a little better on Boxing Day, as long as you live in the right place, with “special services” on the 1A 2X 6A 41 55 and 100. These start between 0800 and 1000 depending on the route and run until early evening although the 1A journey at 0600 from Heysham Towers to Lancaster Infirmary will also operate.
The rest of the time, between Monday, 22nd December and Friday, 2nd January, a SATURDAY timetable will operate on all services, with buses returning to normal timetables from Saturday, 3rd January.
