Bus Routes Change in Rushcliffe | Nottingham News

Major bus route changes hit Rushcliffe starting August 24th, with a 12-month road closure at Kirk Hill disrupting the Rushcliffe Villager service—cutting direct links to Shelford and Gunthorpe. To compensate, Nottinghamshire County Council is funding eight extra Nottsbus 747 trips Monday–Saturday, while the East Midlands Combined County Authority covers the rest. Passengers in Shelford and Gunthorpe can still reach Bingham or Nottingham via the 747 to Radcliffe, then transfer to either the Villager or mainline with through tickets. In East Bridgford, the Villager will detour through Butts Lane and Holloway Close, with 24/7 parking restrictions enforced for safety. These changes support a major upgrade to the A614 and A6097—seen as a key milestone—with bus operators working closely to maintain connectivity.
