Route R Special from rottingdean tomorrow

FOOTBALL SPECIAL BUS - ROTTINGDEAN

Because of the gas main repairs works in Rottingdean, the normal Rottingdean and Woodingdean supplementary bus service (Route R Special) will not be running as usual.

We recommend that for your journey to the stadium you use one of the numerous costal bus services to the city centre and then the 25 to the stadium.

This is likely to be an issue until the end of November. The homebound journey should not be disrupted.

Please share this to fellow Albion fans, friends or family that use that service.
can we make this a sticky

Where did you hear this? I've checked the club website and there's nothing there, unsurprisingly.

The bus website says slightly differently

A major gas works programme is to take place in Rottingdean from 27 October. The Green and Vicarage Lane will be closed southbound, and so all buses on service 2/2A and football route R heading from Woodingdean to Rottingdean will need to operate via Ovingdean to the White Horse terminus instead. The afternoon journeys on services 76 and 76A from Longhill School will also need to operate via Ovingdean. Northbound buses should be unaffected.

It came up as an entry on Facebook for me

It's on the club site now in the pre match brief. A bit late.

Rottingdean/Ovingdean is an absolute nightmare around 16.00-19.00pm

It really must be avoided at all costs.

'Not running as usual'. Does that mean a disrupted service? Does it mean it's not running at all?

That would make sense with the Bus company's information. It's not very well worded, is it?
