300, 561 & 13B / SERVICE DISRUPTION / 12th of January 2026

There are delays at Stick War Memorial in both directions.

This will impact the 300, 561 school services and the 13B partially .

The 300 will be terminating at The Market towards Chelmsford and starting service toward Basildon from The Cathedral at Duke street.

This means that temporarily the 300s will  not go into the Bus Station.

Customers should walk toward The High Street to get the 300. This is short term until the delays clear.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
