BLUESTAR have increased the number of bus services on one of their Winchester routes.

The number 1 bus between Southampton and Winchester will now run every 15 minutes instead of 20 throughout the day, apart from during peak periods.

The firm has also announced there will be extra buses to ease the afternoon journeys on the route from Winchester. This is aimed to help customers and students at Peter Symonds College.

Bluestar 1 will also serve Winchester Rail Station on Monday to Friday evenings to connect with trains arriving from London in the evening.

The changes will take effect from September 1. To find out more visit bluestarbus.co.uk
