Whilst we will always do our best to operate these connections as shown, unfortunately they cannot be guaranteed. When there is a very short time between the arrival of one bus and the departure of the connecting journey, buses may be held for a reasonable amount of time, where this is possible, to allow for the arrival of a delayed incoming service. Unfortunately, First Eastern Counties Buses cannot be held responsible for any loss or additional expenditure incurred where a connection has not been made. W bus operates via Reydon Boydens Store (0740) and Wangford Church Street (0747) concession passes are valid before 0930 on all departures shown in green
