Northern Above Bar closure from 19 October

Due to the southbound lane closure of Northern Above Bar between the Cenotaph and the junction at Civic Centre Road, some bus routes will be diverted.

Buses from Millbrook and Shirley on Bluestar 18 will not be able to drop off at Commercial Road. We will instead drop off outside the Police Station on Havelock Road. All other stops will remain as normal, and we will pick up at the usual stop on Commercial Road heading back towards Millbrook and Shirley.

Buses from Airport and University on Uni-link U1 will not be able to drop off opposite the Civic Centre and will also instead drop off outside the Police Station on Havelock Road. All other stops will remain as normal, and we will pick up outside the Civic Centre as usual if you are heading back towards Airport and University.

We're sorry for any inconvenience this may cause, and will keep you posted here when routes return to normal.

There may be delays to all buses in and out of the city centre as more traffic is diverted onto bus routes, but we will keep any problems to an absolute minimum.
