MOREBUS has announced a range of new routes across some of Dorset’s best scenery – including a journey to Weymouth.
The bus operator is extending its popular Purbeck Breezer routes, with more open-top buses and a fresh new look planned.
Due to be unveiled at an event in Poole Park on Friday, April 7 (Good Friday), Morebus will deliver four new routes across Bournemouth, Christchurch, Poole, Purbecks and Weymouth.
Nikki Honer, Morebus head of communications, said: “We’re very excited to be revealing our striking new family of Breezers at Poole Park during the Dolphin Marching Band’s Easter Fair.
“These new services are the result of a recent review of our offering here. We’ve listened to what our customers have told us they would like, in terms of bus services during the summer across Dorset, and we think they will be impressed by these changes.
“We are blessed with truly wonderful coastline and countryside here, and are expecting an exceptional number of visitors to the area for the summer season - especially now that more people are opting for ‘staycations’.
“The entire team here at Morebus is looking forward to showing off these striking new-look Breezers at the special launch event next month, and we can’t wait to welcome our customers - old and new - on-board.”
The new routes include:
30/31 Jurassic Breezer (from 27 May) - Swanage, Corfe Castle, Wareham, Lulworth Cove, Durdle Door, Weymouth.
