From November 2nd, Arriva are planning a swathe of ill-conceived service CUTS to our SuperBus local town services in Stevenage. Below is a summary of these abhorrent plans:
SB1:
Mon-Sat 23:30 service WITHDRAWN
NO SERVICE after 20:10 on SUNDAYS
SB2/SB3:
Saturday frequencies reduced to every 30 minutes, resulting in a combined frequency of every 15 minutes (down from every 10 minutes combined) Sun 23:00 service WITHDRAWN
SB4/SB5:
Saturday frequencies reduced to every 30 minutes, resulting in a combined frequency of every 15 minutes (down from every 10 minutes combined) Mon-Fri 05:49 WITHDRAWN Mon-Fri 23:00 and 23:32 WITHDRAWN Saturday 06:45 WITHDRAWN
SB7:
Mon-Sat 23:30 service WITHDRAWN
Saturday service reduced to HOURLY
Saturday 23:30 WITHDRAWN
SUNDAY 20:45, 21:45 and 22:45 services WITHDRAWN
SB8:
Mon-Fri 05:54, 06:24 and 06:50 services WITHDRAWN SUNDAY 06:50 and 07:20 services WITHDRAWN
We call upon our MP, Kevin Bonavia, to make all efforts possible to work with Arriva, Hertfordshire County Council (Intalink) and, as necessary, the Regional Traffic Commissioner to discourage and prevent these changes from taking place without full and proper consultation with passengers, passenger representatives, and local businesses.
Bus Users Group Stevenage is going to work tirelessly to ensure these changes do not take place, but we need your help. You do NOT have to be a member to sign this petition, every signature counts, so please SIGN NOW!

Total madness. They just dont care about the people who actually use these buses every single day.
Living in Broadwater and these cuts will make getting to work a nightmare. Absolute joke.
Really need the Sunday buses for visiting family. Please reconsider.
How are people supposed to get home after a late shift? This is ridiculous.
ARGH!! Just when you think the service is okay they pull this. Sort it out.
Shocking plans from arriva
