Service Updates

Changes to Service 21 29/10/2026 11:45:54

From 1st November 2026

There will be some changes to Service 21 from 1st November affecting both the timetable and the route.

A 30 minute frequency will be maintained across the core parts of the 21 route, however, the 21 service will no longer serve Stapenhill and Linton. From Burton, service will operate along main Stanton Rd towards Stanton, then after serving Castle Gresley the service will operate directly along Castle Rd towards Church Gresley.

This is to improve overall reliability of the service and due to low passenger numbers through Linton.

Service will continue to be maintained through Stapenhill by routes 2, 21E & 22.
Services 19C, 21E & 22 will continue to serve Linton.

There will be no changes to Service 21E which will remain the same as currently.

The new timetable can be downloaded here
