Number 7 Bus Service – withdrawl of service
Number 7 Bus Service
We have been informed by Dorset County Council that Damory Coaches has decided to withdraw the Number 7 bus service with effect from 18th February. As this particular bus service is a commercial one that receives no funding from the County Council, Damory are within their rights to do this.
The County Council are aware that this is the only bus service that serves Charlton Down so it is looking in to some alternatives. One possibility is that the Sherborne to Dorchester service (216) is re-routed to incorporate Charlton Down which would also mean Charlton Down benefits from a bus service to Sherborne.
Final routes and times have yet to be decided but as soon as these are confirmed we will let you know.
If you have any questions please contact the Clerk (Sarah Davies) on 01305 263342 or email clerk@charminster.info
