Sheffield bus services: Stagecoach announce wave of timetable changes set to begin within weeks

Stagecoach have announced a wave of changes to their bus timetables for the winter, after a number of services were dropped or picked up by operators in Sheffield after pandemic-funding measures ended.

The company announced a large number of alterations across South Yorkshire, with 14 Sheffield services’ routes and timetables being affected.

Popular services, like the 120, are only seeing alterations to their timetables, whilst others, like the SL1 and SL1a service are withdrawn and replaced by another service.
