Stagecoach South West to extend routes this summer

The trial extension offers customers reduced fares

The Stagecoach South West Exeter Plus boundary will be extended to include Newton Poppleford, Sidmouth and Sidford for a month trial period during the summer. 

Updates to the Exeter Plus boundary will be trailed from 14th July to 11th August, enabling customers living in rural towns and villages to travel further for less.

The extension offers customers reduced fares, enabling them to save £2.10 on a daily Explorer ticket and £8.00 on a weekly Explorer ticket. 

Passengers will be able to travel to and from Exeter for the day for just £6.20. Weekly travel is £22.00 and groups of up to 5 people will be able to travel for £12.40 (saving £4.20).  

Stagecoach South West Managing Director, Bob Dennison said: “At Stagecoach South West we are always looking for new ways to improve the service and value we offer our customers.

“After listening to feedback, we are embarking on a trial to extend of the Exeter Plus boundary and hope it will prove popular with new and existing passengers. Following the four week trial we will review passenger uptake to determine how popular the extension is.”
