    Yes, its good news that there will be a replacement for the withdrawn 329 service.

    What is not so good news is there will no longer be an evening service from Bristol to North Yate. I feel really sorry for those who live the furthest out in Brimsham Park who will have to walk a considerable distance from Yate Shopping Centre to get home at that time of night and in the cold winter weather.

  2. Yate Town Council are on the case. Ian Blair raised this at Yate TC last week and they have complained to South Glos for precisely this reason.
