Wilmcote and Aston Cantlow Bus Action Group was formed following a significant change in local bus services in October 2007 with the withdrawal of commercially operated bus services by Stagecoach in Warwickshire.

The group has actively fought to maintain the level of service, particulary those services operated in the evening, which following the changes were withdrawn. Our campaigning has resulted in the reinstatement of these services following the introduction of a financially supported replacement service by Warwickshire County Council.

April 2008: The new timetable has been successfully introduced. The group would like to remind readers of the evening services into and from Stratford. There are two evening services into town departing Wilmcote Green at 17:26 and 18:26 and Aston Cantlow King’s Head at 17:32 and 18:32. A return bus, the number 29 (to Evesham) departs Bridge Street at 23:25 and Wood Street 23:26 on request to Wilmcote and Aston Cantlow. This is an excellent way of travelling for a night out in Stratford.

The other good news is that with the new timetable the fares have been reduced with the return fare now £2.85 down from £3.60. Another good incentive to use the service!

We have received a letter from John Maples MP reaffirming his support for us, offering assistance should we require it and requesting that we keep him informed of any relevant events.
