Good news this month as we finally have a date for the new 49 service that runs through Broad Hinton via Summers Lane, High Street and Yew Tree Lane - service starts on Monday 3rd March.
There will be two bus stops in Broad Hinton
Village Hall – the stop is opposite the hall.
Pitchens End / High St – there will be an additional stop at the junction of Pitchens End and High St.
Both bus stop signs are on the side towards Devizes. If you are travelling towards Swindon please wait on the other side of the road and signal the driver to stop.
You’ll see the bus stop signs going up over the next few days – they are temporary to get the service running as the permanent ones will take a few months.

For Saturday and Sunday timetables, please see https://www.stagecoachbus.com or https://www.bhwbparishcouncil.org.uk/buses.
There will no doubt be some teething issues as drivers get used to the route, Stagecoach management are aware of this and will be stressing the new route to the 49 drivers. If you have any difficulties, please let me know and I’ll collate and pass on to the Wiltshire Council bus network manager.
More details of the timetable and a live bus map at https://www.bhwbparishcouncil.org.uk/buses - works quite well on a mobile phone too.
