What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The bus service connecting Southwell and Nottingham has seen timetable changes, cutting evening services to once every two hours. This eliminated the 10:10 pm weekday bus and reduced the 3 am bus service. Southwell Town Council members are concerned about these changes and plan to request Nottingham City Council investigate the implications.

Why it matters

The council fears the changes negatively affect the night-time economy and the safety of young adults in Southwell. Residents may now have to spend money on Ubers and taxis or wait longer for transport. The council is also requesting the reinstatement of the 3 am bus on Friday and Saturday nights.
