 Big changes planned for controversial MK Connect buses as council strives to improve service in Milton Keynes

Join us for our EV roadshow event outside Walton Hall from 11-2. We will have Electric Vehicles on site including Tesla and VW amongst others. Test drives will be available on the day (subject to T&C). Free PAT testing for EV leads in Juniper Medlar.

From the Sunday 7th January 2024, the Arriva bus route that comes onto site hourly is being renumbered to X4. And will no longer be number 150.

9/9A is going and being replaced by the hourly 150 which should give a much better service, both in terms of frequency and hours of operation, and also punctuality as we know the current solution has been problematic.

The F70/F77 diverting past the OU once a day in each direction will stay for the moment but will likely end in October as part of wider changes to those services at the Luton/Dunstable end of the route; the link from campus to Leighton Buzzard will continue to be provided by the 150.

Below is the new timetable and a link to the online timetable.

Well done to everyone that participated in our Annual Cycling Event, 484.89 km were logged by the 41 recorded participants (more than last year).  Cycling is an excellent way of keeping fit and contributes immensely towards a strong and healthy mind.
