Now taking bookings at the Tourist Information Office, Melksham Community Bus has released its schedule of Winter Days Out.
John Ruderman said, “Several people have been into the TIC asking for some winter days out, so get your bookings in for these. The trips we went on last year were all very popular with our customers and we hope to be able to offer a wide range over the next year. This year’s trips are planned in response to requests from some of our regulars for a day at the seaside, a return to Wells and to go “somewhere nice.”
“The latest trips we have planned are 3rd March to Wells and 31st March to Bourton on the Water.
“We pick you up at a location near your home whenever possible, or at King Street Car Park if that is more convenient for you. Please call into the TIC to pick up a leaflet or to make a booking.
Shopper Buses
“Don’t forget that we also run our popular shopper buses on Thursday and Friday mornings. These bus services are free to people with bus passes.
“The Thursday bus picks you up at home and goes to a different town centre each week. After a couple of hours in town we take you home again. Our driver will even help you carry your shopping to your door! We will take you either to Trowbridge, Devizes or Chippenham, details of which destination are available from Melksham TIC.
“The Friday bus will also pick you up at home and then to a local supermarket, usually Sainsburys and drop you back home again. The driver can take you to other supermarkets on request.
“Please call the TIC to book a place on the shopper bus on 01225 707424.
“We can also offer buses for hire with driver, to organisations and groups.”
