First Group have not restored services to Sainsbury's as promised. Will they ever?

First Groups's new timetables for 31st August onwards have not been published and, as we feared, there are no changes to the 267 service.

This means that First's assurance that the service would resume calling at the Sainsbury's end of Frome in 'August' has not materialised, and they have made no further statement as to whether this will ever happen.

This is bad news for passengers in Frome. Will First explain themselves?

Timetable changes

Some First Bus timetables are changes from 31st August. As far as we know, Frome services are unaffected apart from the 234.

The 234 is still running on the present route when they changeover. Their have been a few time changes, as follows.

Monday -Friday

10.15 from Trowbridge will be a minute later getting into Frome -  it will now arrive at 10.39 instead of  10.38.

The 16.13 will now be the 16.24 but will arrive at Frome at the same time as it does now.

Trowbridge 17.30 will now be the 17.41 but will arrive at same time as it does now.
