From 24 June, the timetables
for 551/552 bus services to Arnside are revised to accommodate route change via
the hospital in Kendal. Leaving Kendal the 551 services will divert from
Romney Bridge roundabout to the hospital before travelling to Natland along
Natland Road and continuing to Arnside. In-bound services will divert on
request for Helme Chase, Asda and WGH. The 552 services for
Milnthorpe and Arnside will be routed past the hospital, and then Endmoor
and Crooklands Hotel instead of via Levens Bridge as currently. For
Natland residents this will provide additional services from the bus-stop on
A65 to Endmoor, Milnthorpe and Arnside.
Note that although the 552 timetable is not significantly changed
the 10.04 departure from Park Close to Kendal is re-timed to 10.03.
Between Natland and Kendal, all other departures involve either slightly
later timings or no change.
