Hop On Board the Shrewsbury Night Bus This Christmas

Shrewsbury has something new (and very welcome) to light up its evenings: the Night Bus trial, launching on 24 November and running until 23 December.

Thanks to a partnership between The Big Town Plan Partnership and Arriva, our town centre now offers an additional safe, affordable way to get home after dark - ideal for the festive season.

Why the Night Bus Matters

• It helps boost Shrewsbury’s evening economy - encouraging people to stay out, enjoy the bars, restaurants, and shops, without worrying about getting home.
• It also makes the town safer, reducing the number of people walking home late along riverside paths.
• It gives hospitality staff, evening workers, and visitors a dependable way home after late shifts or nights out.

How You Can Help Make It Permanent

This is a trial: the more people use it from the 24th of November until the 23rd of December, the stronger the case for a long-term service.

You can help make it permanent by:

• Riding the bus!
• Talking about it: with friends, colleagues, or on social media.
• Giving feedback: your voice matters - let local councillors, your MP or Shrewsbury BID know you've used it and want to see it become permanent!

Hop on!
