Buses in Norwich

Looking to find out more about buses in Norwich? You've come to the right place! We operate frequent, colour-coded bus routes that take you all across our fine city and beyond. Whether you're heading to school, work or enjoying a day's shopping or an evening out in the city, we'll glide down the bus lanes to get you there faster and more relaxed.

If your journey takes you across the city, maybe to the UEA, the hospital, Broadland Business Park, the Rail Station or for a day out to explore somewhere new, you can make easy connections onto other buses in the city centre, with most routes coming within a few footsteps of one-another.

Coming from further afield? Norwich Park & Ride is the perfect way to skip the queues into the city and save on parking fees. Click here to head over to our dedicated webpage for all the details, otherwise you can check out the rest of our bus routes below.
