Wyre Council update as route changes introduced to Fleetwood’s free shuttle bus service

Wyre Council has announced a minor update to Fleetwood’s free shuttle bus service.

Following feedback from passengers, the council has revealed that the changes which are being implemented are designed to improve convenience and help the service remain on schedule for passengers.

The shuttle bus, operated in partnership with Blackpool Transport Services Ltd, continues to run free of charge on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays between 10am and 3.30pm.

Under the revised route, the service will stop at Elm Street for tram connections, Station Road, Dock Street and Albert Street. A temporary pick-up and drop-off point has also been introduced on Victoria Street, opposite the coach bay, before the shuttle returns via Dock Street to the tram stop.

The free service was introduced to help residents and visitors travel around Fleetwood while tram services are affected. It provides access to key locations across the town and supports local businesses and attractions.

Wyre Council said the latest changes have been made in response to passenger feedback and are intended to make journeys more convenient while maintaining reliable running times. The council is encouraging people to continue using the service to visit Fleetwood Market, shop locally and enjoy the town’s coastal attractions.

Officials also thanked passengers for their continued support as efforts continue to keep Fleetwood moving during the disruption to tram services.
