The new summer edition of South Hams Bus Times is now available.

It provides residents and visitors with comprehensive information regarding local bus services in the South Hams together with summaries of rail and National Express Coach services, maps of bus routes in Dartmouth, Kingsbridge, Ivybridge and Totnes and information about the types of tickets available.

The timetable has been completely revamped in response to comments received during public consultation.

People were asked for their views on the content and format and put forward their ideas to make the timetable more user-friendly.

As a result a number of changes have been made to the presentation of the timetable, maps and introductory pages to increase clarity and legibility.

Devon County Council's Executive Member for Environment, Cllr Margaret Rogers, said: "These changes will make it even easier for passengers to find the times of their buses and trains and we hope this will encourage more people to use the public transport network in Devon."

The South Hams Bus Times guide is available from a number of outlets in the South Hams area including tourist information centres, bus company offices, post offices and libraries and is a useful source for anyone planning to use public transport to travel to work or for days out.
