Where are the Sunday buses?

The Green Route to National Parks

Bus services are limited in many parts of our National Parks and, despite being one of the most popular days for visiting, Sunday services are particularly scarce.

Buses are a great way to see and explore National Parks, they help reduce the number of cars on the road meaning less congestion, pollution and less pressure for car parking in popular sites. We believe everyone should be able to access and experience these landscapes, no matter where they live, and buses are a great way to do this. However, the lack of public transport can make it very difficult to visit, particularly for the thousands of households without access to a car.

We want to see significant improvements for Sunday bus services, but we need strong evidence to highlight the impact that a lack of services has on equal and sustainable visitor access – this is where you come in.

Help us by sharing your experiences of Sunday bus services by taking our Green Routes to National Parks survey.

So far our work has focused on collecting information about bus routes in Exmoor and Dartmoor but we want to grow this to include all National Parks in England and Wales.
