The new routes, which will operate from Monday to Friday, are outlined below:

While the trial will run for a year, passenger numbers will be reviewed regularly – particularly at the six-month mark – to determine whether adjustments to the routes are needed. At the end of the trial period, consistent patronage will determine the trial’s success and its continuation.
