A shake-up of bus services in Morecambe - including changes affecting the 'Bare Circular' and Westgate routes - will come into effect soon.

The 33 'Bare Circular' Morecambe-Bare service is being withdrawn but will be replaced by "an improved service" 6B and 6C, said bus company Stagecoach, from January 15 2024.

Service 6 will be reduced to hourly, still with a 30 minute service combined with the new 6B & 6C.

Service 6A will have minor timing changes to improve reliability.

Bus services to and from Bare in Morecambe are to be replaced with a new service in the new year, said Stagecoach.

Service 6B will be a new loop service operating from Morecambe - Westgate - Branksome Estate - Bare – Morecambe, operating hourly.

Service 6C will be a new loop service operating from Morecambe - Bare - Branksome Estate - Westgate – Morecambe, operating hourly.

Both services operating roughly every 30 minutes from Bare to Morecambe, also combined 15 minute service between Westgate and Morecambe.
