The Bluestar and Unilink network is expanding!

Great news! From the 19th of February, your Unilink ticket will get you further, in and around Southampton. Following the recent announcement that First City Reds are leaving Southampton, we will be adding six new Bluestar routes to our network.

Download our new network map here where you can see where each route goes.

Your Unilink tickets will be valid across our Bluestar network in Southampton, including the new routes, and staff/student discounted tickets can still be purchased for the new and existing Bluestar routes. For more information, visit our fares and tickets page. There will be new travel opportunities available for staff, students and visitors from the following locations - details and timetables can be viewed below:

We recommend you download our bus app, where you can plan your journey, view timetables, buy tickets as well as being able to track buses in live times. Plus receive any service updates that may affect your journey. 

All our buses accept contactless payments as well as cash, and our drivers do carry change. However, for best value tickets these are available on our app.

*These routes cross into our Southampton Plus Zone. Please check our zone map before travelling, as an additional fare charge may apply.
