EM Airway 9 Continues

Airway 9 Services to continue serving EMA & EMG

06 August 2026

Derbyshire Leicestershire Staffordshire

Diamond Bus are pleased to announce that the future of the Airway Service 9 has been secured until April 2027, following funding from East Midlands Combined County Authority (EMCCA).

Existing funding for the section of route from Ashby to East Midlands Airport and Gateway was due to finish at the end of this month, with the future of this section uncertain.

The newly secured funding now allows the full route of the Service 9 to continue with no changes into next year, and we are pleased to be working in partnership with EMCCA to continue to operate this service as part of the Diamond network.
