The number 5 now travels in both directions along Lobelia Road and Bassett Green Road. Many people, including this Association, had objected to the ridiculous anomaly that it was possible to catch a bus from the Burgess Road shops to Bassett Green Road, but not a bus to get there.
A change in the route of the U6, means that it no longer goes round a loop past the Wessex Lane halls. Instead it turns left into Burgess Road at McDonald’s and returns the same way. The U6 stop to the town is now in High Road, outside Morfair Supermarket.
