The new winter edition of Teignbridge Bus Times is now available.

It provides residents and visitors with comprehensive information regarding local bus services within Teignbridge together with a summary of rail and National Express Coach services, maps of bus routes in Newton Abbot Kingsteignton, Dawlish and Teignmouth 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, the maps and the 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 Teignbridge Bus Times guide is available from a number of outlets in the Teignbridge 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.
