The bus service near Winterbourne has recently changed due to the implementation of a new service of buses X64 and X62. The number 20 and 21 buses no longer run. To get to Winterbourne from the city centre the numbers 61 and 63 provide the most regular services, with a joint frequency of every 3-4 minutes between and Northfield, stopping on the Bristol Road - a 5 minute walk from Winterbourne. The X64 and X62 pick up passengers from Paradise Circus and the Town Hall, and run less frequently, however they stop at fewer stops making it an express service.
