Leicestershire County Bus Map and Guide

On the map below, you may click on the route or service number for the current timetable selection page from traveline.

(Please be aware that timetables need to be selected in each direction where applicable.)

On routes (identified by an asterisk), each settlement locator on the route is linked to the star trak page (by an off-site link) for that location and offers the option of selecting that bus stop for information in real time. By slowly moving your cursor over the location mark the destination in the opposite direction can be selected (where applicable). As real-time information comes from an off-site web page it may take some time to load. Please be patient.

Introduction

This guide map has been produced in partnership between Leicestershire County Council, Leicester City Council and the main bus operators in the county as part of the Bus Information Strategy (BIS). The BIS has been implemented to assist people in finding out information about bus services.

The map above shows the main bus services in Leicestershire. These are all regular services with at least one bus operating every hour. You can get information on these bus services from a number of sources - but the main place to find out details is from the traveline service by phone, tel. 0870 608 2 608 (National rate), or on the internet at www.traveline.org.uk. Traveline will also be able to post you a timetable. In addition you can get timetables for your area from libraries, tourist information offices, local council offices and bus company travel shops. You will find large displays with maps and timetable listings at the main bus departure points in all of Leicestershire's County towns. The BIS partnership is also oncreasing the number of displays at bus stops and shelters over the coming months and will be publishing more local guides and maps (including Leicester City area).
