Timetable change halves bus frequency
06.11.09
Passengers from North Essex will have to two hours for buses from Stansted Airport, after timetable changes have effectively halved the frequency. Travel firm First reduced the frequency of its airport bus, via Marks Tey and Braintree, from one hour to two hours in March, claiming insufficient demand.
In May, rival company Excel launch a new service, pushing the frequency of buses offered between the two companies back to one an hour. But now, an extension of First’s X22 service, to take in Clacton, Frating and Elmstead Market, has resulted in a revised timetable, with First’s buses leaving Stansted at the same time as Excel’s, effectively halving the bus frequency.
