Service 8 Diversion - Abbotsbury Road and Chickerell Road Night Works

From Monday 23rd November until Friday 27th November 2026, between 8:00pm and 6:00am each night

Due to carriageway resurfacing and lining works on Abbotsbury Road and Chickerell Road, some Service 8 journeys will be unable to follow their normal route during overnight road closures.

During the diversion, buses will operate via Newstead Road, Goldcroft Road, Chafeys Roundabout, Granby Way, Wessex Roundabout, and Radipole Lane before rejoining the normal route at Chickerell Road.

Buses travelling in the opposite direction will follow the same diversion in reverse.

During the works, we will be unable to serve the stops at Holly Road, Cromwell Road, The Adelaide, Dennis Road, Quibo Lane, and Fiveways (inbound only).

Please allow extra time for your journey and use alternative nearby stops where possible. We apologise for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience while these essential works are carried out.
