Service Updates

247 Bidford Bridge Closure 13/02/2026 16:08:02

From 16th February until 1st March 2026

Bidford Bridge will close for two week from 16th February between the hours of 09:30 until 15:30, affecting the 247 Service.

Journeys outside of these hours will operate as normal.

For journeys affected by the closure, the following diversion will apply:
Where possible, some journeys will divert via Welford over Binton Bridge. Where this isn’t possible due to vehicle weight, the service will instead be split at Bidford / Cleeve Prior, with passengers able to join-up the two sections of service by using the 28 Stagecoach service, which will shuttle passengers between these sections.

Temporary timetable available here. 

Affected Services: 247 247A 247S
