A spokesperson said: “Exciting news for our 31 service!

“We're expanding our route to include areas South of Blackpool Road.

“The journey will still take you along the familiar path from Lea Road to Blackpool Road, but now it will turn left onto Thorntree Avenue!

“From there, we’ll continue on Thornpark Drive and Hawthorn Crescent, make a right onto Parkthorn Road, then onto Campian Drive, before looping back left onto Blackpool Road.”

The new route will start on Monday, November 30.
