Two Sunday bus services axed over passenger numbers

Arriva passengers should check their timetables

Two Sunday bus services are being axed at the end of August as "revisions" are made to timetables in Derby.

Arriva has announced the changes, which will take effect from 30 August.

This includes ending the 4 Derby to Alvaston and the X38 Derby to Burton-on-Trent journeys on a Sunday.

Both changes are "due to low customer use", said Arriva.

From Monday to Saturday, both will run up to every half an hour "to reflect customer demand", but the 4 will no longer serve Derby Commercial Park due to low passenger numbers.

Timetables for the 5/5A to Littleover, 6/7 to Sunnyhill and Sinfin, 8 to Mackworth, 20/21 to Chaddesden and Spondon, and 26 to Oakwood will be revised from 30 August.

An Arriva spokesperson said: "It is important to make sure your bus services are kept up to date, and we will be making some revisions."
