ARRIVA has announced changes to its bus timetable due to several road closures being put in place for the Northwich Krazy Races event.
The action-packed fun-filled event will take place in the town between 10am and 6pm day on Sunday, June 26 with both Castle Street and Chester Way closed off to traffic.
As a result of the closures, bus company Arriva confirmed the following changes to the number 1 service:
The 10.30am, 12.30pm, 2.30pm and 4.30pm departures from Northwich Interchange (Stand C) will divert via A533 and A556 to Hartford, then to Weaverham. These journeys will return slightly later than normal, operating via Greenbank, Moss Road and A533 Winnington Lane.
The 9.30am, 11.30am, 1.30pm and 5.30pm departures from the interchange (Stand C) will operate as above to Weaverham. These journeys will return slightly later than normal, operating via Burrows Hill and Winnington, changing to the number 4 to serve Barnton, before returning to town via the usual number 4 route.
All services on the number 4 route to Barnton will commence from Winnington and will operate around Barnton approximately ten minutes earlier than the normal Sunday timetable – at 10.03am, 12.03pm, 2.03pm, 4.03pm and 6.03pm.
Passengers wishing to travel to Barnton from Northwich should catch the number 1 bus departing at 9.30am, 11.30am, 1.30pm, 3.30pm and 5.30pm.
Arriva said: “We apologise for any inconvenience caused by circumstances beyond our control.”
