Preston Bus announce series of changes across network - including PNE's matchday special
Preston Bus bosses have announced a range of changes to services across the area - including PNE’s matchday buses.
From Sunday, July 20, there will be some new services introduced into the network, as well as amended timetables, and the loss of a ‘special’ service.
Bosses at Preston Bus say the amendments “reflect the quieter traffic levels and reduced demand for services over the summer holiday period.”
