Kirkby Lonsdale Coaches took over operation of the 552 in November and have been pleased with the uptake of the service since it has been running on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday only. As a result the service is being extended to additionally serve Morrisons, Aldi and Sainsbury’s. Times of the journey towards Kendal are unchanged, but the return trip will run 30 minutes later to allow extra shopping time in Kendal.
There are also going to be two new services and although they run from Sedgwick rather than Natland they might provide a nice day out to Morecambe via Carnforth on a Tuesday or to Kirkby Lonsdale market on a Thursday.
These changes will come into effect from the start of March.
