208 Ellesmere Town Service
Unfortunately we cannot serve Beech Drive due to a car parked to close to the junction where Beech Drive meets Oswestry Road meaning larger vehicles are unable to pass.

The bus will travel down to the Business park roundabout and pick up along Oswestry Road instead.

We would like to thank you all for your incredible response to our appeal regarding the damaged windscreen on our new coach.
With nearly 700 shares and loads of publicity from local media pages we are happy to say we have some great evidence and leads giving clear indications of the culprit(s).
Discussions with the police are on going.
