  • Malmesbury - Cirencester)
    Review of bus services in North West Wiltshire Service 93 (Malmesbury - Cirencester) Summary of proposed change A slight reduction in the frequency of service is proposed. Most journeys are diverted via Lea village and Cowbridge Crescent (instead of Milbourne) to replace other services. Milbourne will be now be served by journeys on the Malmesbury town service (service 30). Commentary on current service Service 93 provides the main public transport service for Charlton, Hankerton, Crudwell and Oaksey in Wiltshire, and Somerford Keynes in Gloucestershire. It also provides a link between the towns of Malmesbury and Cirencester. It also runs through Milbourne, which is currently served as well by the more frequent service 31. Service 93 currently runs approximately every two hours between 0730 and 1830 on Mondays to Saturdays. The service carries around 35,000 passenger journeys a year. The school and college journeys are well used to both Cirencester and Malmesbury, but numbers travelling during the day are lower. Around half of passengers overall are travelling to / from Cirencester and half to / from Malmesbury. Crudwell and Oaksey are the villages generating the most passengers, with Chelworth, Charlton and Somerford Keynes following. Only 1 or 2 passenger trips a day originate in Milbourne, and the diversion via Poole Keynes is rarely used. The service is part funded by Gloucestershire County Council. Explanation of proposed changes The journeys before 0900 and after 1600 are well used and no changes are proposed. A slight reduction in the frequency of service between 0900 and 1600 is proposed in order to reduce costs, and journeys will be retimed to allow more efficient use to be made of the vehicles.
