Replacement Western Greyhound bus services are running from this morning.

New replacement timetables are available on the Cornwall Council website www.cornwall.gov.uk/buses or from the bus operators own websites.

The Council’s Passenger Transport team has been working with the bus industry to arrange alternative services to those that were provided formerly by Western Greyhound.

First, Plymouth City Bus and Stagecoach bus companies are running replacement services; Bodmin Group Travel is running a replacement service for the Liskeard School run until the end of the academic year.

A council spokesman said: "It is hoped that, for the main part, disruption to the general public will be kept to a minimum."

"Former Western Greyhound buses will still be running but they will not be operated by Western Greyhound.

"All Real Time Passenger Information signs (RTPI) have been switched off to avoid confusion while the service timetables are being updated."
