Bus scheme extending to Jurby

Bus services to Jurby are set to improve, as a new timetable is introduced by Bus Vannin next month.

The village becomes the latest to be included in the on-demand connectVILLAGE minibus scheme - which enables people to be collected from their home.

It'll replace the current five Monday- Friday and nine Saturday services.

The scheme was launched in December, and has been praised by communities - with customer satisfaction standing at 97.7 per cent from January to March this ywear. 

Bookings can be made online at www.bus.im/connect or by calling 697440 between 8.30am and 4.30pm Monday to Friday.
