Yellow Line 28, 29, X29 Services

Due to roadworks expected to last until 1st December in Drayton, we will be experiencing delays of up to 30 mins and possible service cancellations as a result.

To allow for the completion of existing works there will be changes to stopping arrangements & some closures affecting services from Monday 3rd November to Friday 19th December (estimated). Any updates relating to this will be added to this page as the project develops - please check back frequently if you use the bus interchange.

During these works there will be temporary changes to stopping arrangements in Cringleford Interchange which will apply to all bus services by all operators.

The stops at Stand B & Stand C will both be suspended to allow a safe working area - Stand B will be relocated north-west of the Dragonfly Way roundabout, and Stand C will be relocated onto the shelter at Stand A. Signage will be in place to direct passengers to the correct bus stops, and bus times will be unchanged.

We apologise for any inconvenience these works may cause to your journey.
