This will provide people needing to travel between the two points with a means of doing so while the A431 Kelston Road is closed due to the recent subsidence problems.
On arrival in Willsbridge people will be able to connect with Services 42, 332 or 319 for onward travel.
The new shuttle bus service will pick up and drop off at The Crown in Kelston and Kenilworth Drive in Willsbridge.
Once in Willsbridge people will be able to connect with Services 42 or 319 from the same stop that the shuttle bus picks up / drops off at. Customers wishing to connect with Service 332 can do so from stops on Keynsham Road.
Travel on the shuttle bus will be free to all those who use it. The route is being funded by South Gloucestershire Council.
The Shuttle service will operate for the duration of the closure.
As from 13th April service 332 will be renumbered to 37.
A timetable for the new shuttle services is available here.
