Trentbarton has announced the full hourly skylink Nottingham service - which runs from Nottingham city centre, to East Midlands Airport and beyond to Loughborough - will continue. The route, which starts in Friar Lane, carries on through Beeston, Long Eaton and on to the airport.
From there, the service goes on to East Midlands Gateway, through Leicestershire to Kegworth, then to Sutton Bonington and Loughborough. However, journeys from East Midlands Gateway, the stop after the airport, to Loughborough were due to be withdrawn from October 2 under a network review.
But services will continue after Nottinghamshire County Council pledged its support. Jeff Counsell, trentbarton’s managing director, said: “We are very pleased that Nottinghamshire County Council has agreed to support the skylink Nottingham link to Sutton Bonington which otherwise we could not have continued.
