New bus service through East Winch village -
Go to Town buses
We are pleased to announce that with the backing of Norfolk County Council we are providing a new bus service to Swaffham and Kings Lynn every Tuesday & Thursday, starting Tuesday 22nd July.
The service will travel along the Station Road and Gayton Road loop for better access to both towns for residents who cannot walk up to the main A47 bus stops.
This service is hail and ride, so residents do not have to walk to a designated bus stop but can put their hand out and hail the bus down at any point in the village. The bus is a fully accessible, low floor 16-seater.
We are now advertising the service on our Facebook page and website and are hoping to have some timetable leaflets available soon.

This year will mark the 80th anniversaries of VE and VJ Day on 8 May and 15 August respectively
To mark the occasions Norfolk County Council is offering communities the chance to close their road free of charge for celebrations.
The anniversaries this year will be a time for reflection and celebration, and an opportunity for the nation to come together to honour and pay tribute to those that lived through and served during Second World War. The days will mark the end of World War II in Europe (VE Day) and Japan surrendering in the Far East, officially marking the end of the Second World War (VJ Day)
