Operating days / times and fares

Since Saturday 28 June 2025, Shrewsbury park and ride buses have been running up to every 12 minutes at peak times, making it even easier and more convenient to travel into the town centre.

This increased frequency is funded from Shropshire Council’s allocation of UK government bus improvement funding for 2025/26. This money will also be spent on improvements to the three park and ride sites, plus improvements to other bus services and infrastructure across the county.

Monday to Friday: buses run every 12 minutes from 8am to 5pm
Saturday: buses run every 12 minutes from 10am to 4pm
Outside of these times, buses operate up to every 20 minutes as before
First bus: 7:20am (8am on Saturdays)
Last bus back from the town centre: 6:30pm
No service on Sundays or bank holidays
