This would definitely reduce car journeys as currently not convenient bus service connecting WOT and Henleaze to Gloucester Road

These areas have suffered a huge loss of bus connectivity over the years. Lost routes include 20/21/22, 585/6 and the 15. We no longer have any direct connection between Henleaze and Gloucester Road, let alone to Eastville, Fishponds, Easton and countless places in between. No wonder everyone lucky enough to own a car drives everywhere.

This is a good idea but I think it would better to get a bus that loops around from Gloucester Road via Cranbrook Road straight along that road to Southmead Hospital. Then it could go through Southmead on the return journey via doncaster road and Greystoke Avenue up Falcondale Road and along the Westbury Road. This would be until the bus gets to Whitree Roundabout where the bus could go left down North View and then link up with the top of the Linden Road again taking a right there.

This service is well needed! I remember struggling with two tots 35 years ago to get to Lawrence Weston from Horfield/Lockleaze. I had to go to town then back out! I have 2 disabled young adults now who could benefit from that service as I am trying to help them become more independent!

It would be marvellous maybe the 505 could go down Wellington Hill calling at Henleaze and Westbury before going to southmead

I’d use it, it’s ridiculously difficult to get to the Gloucester Road from Westbury.

An excellent idea. There used to be such a service, and it's sadly missed
