This is a long-term project started in 2020 to hopefully cover the UK. The names given to each map are for easy reference and may not accurately reflect the areas covered. 27 maps have been completed as shown on the Guide to Maps below - further maps will follow over the coming months and years but progress will be slow.
LATEST UPDATES
Maps revised so far in 2024 are 22 Peterborough (September), 11 Essex and 18 Suffolk (June), 1 Cornwall, 5 Sussex, 6 Kent (April); 9 Avon & North Wilts and 10 Thames Valley (March); 3 Dorset and 8 Somerset (February). Due to other commitments the project is largely on the back burner, but I am hoping to make better progress in 2025.
PLEASE NOTE: bus routes are constantly changing, much more than when this project was conceived in 2019. Each map is a record of the bus routes as at the date shown at the bottom of the map. New fully-updated versions are being uploaded when time permits.
Scroll down for links to the latest maps, available in pdf and jpeg versions (pdfs are also linked from the Quick Access section above). Older versions of the maps (pdf only) are also available below. Beware when comparing versions as early maps may have less detail.
