Detailed BSIP enhancements to supported services

The information below outlines the BSIP enhancements to the supported services.

21 – Brighton & Hove Buses

Improvements to the service, effective from Sunday 11 June 2023

City Centre – Queens Park - Manor Hill – Whitehawk – Wilson Avenue – Brighton Marina Section of Route (the Eastern Section): The service has doubled in frequency to every 15 minutes during the daytime on Mondays to Saturdays. The Monday to Saturday late evening service are improved to run half-hourly, with the last bus from Churchill Square at 23.55. City Centre – Furze Hill – The Drive - Shirley Drive – Goldstone Valley, Woodland Avenue & King George VI Drive Section of Route (the Western Section): The service has doubled in frequency to every 30 minutes during the daytime on Mondays to Saturdays. A Monday to Saturday late evening service was introduced: buses run hourly in the late evenings, with the last bus leaving Churchill Square at 23.05. The route is simplified between Furze Hill and George Street (Goldstone Villas) to run direct via Eaton Road - instead of via Selborne Road, Church Road and Tisbury Road - which makes many people’s journeys quicker. All journeys are numbered 21. Journeys on the western section of route continue across the city to Brighton Marina. The additional journeys on the eastern section run to and from Churchill Square.

37/37B – Compass Travel

Improvements to the services, effective from Sunday 29 January 2023

The 37/37B was improved to provide the same level of service on Sunday daytimes as it provided during the week. This now means a more frequent Sunday daytime service for Bristol Estate and Meadowview, and a new Sunday service for communities along the 37B route - e.g. Southover Street, Pankhurst Avenue, Hartington Road, and Bear Road. There were some minor weekday timing changes to improve reliability – and the 37B bus will now also serve Hartington Road at school finishing times, on its way to Meadowview.

The Big Lemon

Improvements to the services, effective from Monday 24 April 2023

The 16 was improved to provide a new later evening service on Mondays to Saturdays, with the last bus from Portslade at 21.00. The 47 was extended to run up to approximately 23.45 on Mondays to Saturdays to allow evening departures from the city centre after 2300 in both directions. A new Sunday service was introduced, running between approximately 09.00 and 19.30. This means a Sunday service for the Hollingbury and Patcham section of route for the first time, as well as a more direct link for the Saltdean section of the route. The 52 was extended to run up to approximately 23.45 on Mondays to Saturdays to allow evening departures from the city centre after 2300 in both directions. A new Sunday service was introduced, running between approximately 09.00 and 19.30. This will mean a completely new Sunday link from Woodingdean to Brighton Marina and Royal Sussex County Hospital, and a Sunday service for the first time for the Hangleton & Knoll section of the route. Service 57 was withdrawn, as it was replaced by new Sunday services on routes 47 and 52.
