Serving Coast and Countryside

New bus routes for the summer

X43 Swanage - Wareham - Lulworth Cove - Weymouth

Starting Saturday 24 July and running every day until Sunday 5 September, the X43 links Swanage, Wareham and Weymouth and runs via Lulworth Cove.

Lulworth Cove is a noted beauty spot on the Jurassic Coast that is normally difficult to reach by public transport. There is also a stop within walking distance of Durdle Door and Stair Hole.

The X43 is run jointly by Wilts & Dorset and First buses and under contract to Dorset County Council; Wilts & Dorset explorer tickets can be used on all journeys, but network and busabout tickets are valid on Wilts & Dorset operated journeys only.

500 Boscombe bus station - Boscombe Pier

On Saturdays and Sundays from 24 July until 29 August, every day from Monday 16 until Friday 20 August and on Bank Holiday Monday 30 August, Wilts & Dorset route 500 will run every 15 minutes between 1000 and 1745 linking Boscombe bus station and Boscombe Pier.

This will be a great way to get to the beach without hassle - and you can buy a day ticket for unlimited travel between Boscombe town centre and Boscombe Pier for only £3.00 adult; £1.50 child.
