March 13th - Not specific to Bradway but...
Derbyshire County Council has introduced a new Demand Responsive Transport (DRT) bus service in North East Derbyshire, which includes Dronfield Woodhouse (so reaches almost to Tinkers Corner!). This is a bus service with no fixed route or timetable, you book a ride in advance and the back office system generates a bus route that serves all the passengers booked. Adult fare is £4 per ride for any journey. Derbyshire Wayfarer tickets are also accepted. English National Concession Senior/Disabled passes are accepted only if they are a Derbyshire Gold card. There is an app to book rides on or it is possible to book over the phone. The service is open to everyone and is intended to cater for journeys not covered by regular scheduled bus services. Full details are at https://www.roadxs.com/travel-derbyshire-on-demand/
March 13th - There will be some minor bus timetable changes in April on the 24 Lowedges and 97/98 Totley/Totley Brook, plus the 218 Bakewell which will switch to the summer season timetable that has more buses on a Sunday.
