New Wokingham public transport guides


New editions of Wokingham public transport information guides have been produced by Wokingham District Council, making it easier for residents to plan their travel and find information about public transport in their area.

The fold-out leaflet, ‘Wokingham District Public Transport Map and Guide’, contains a map of the district showing all bus and train routes, updated to show winter changes to these services. The leaflet gives details of bus and train operators and frequency of services, amongst other useful information such as school services and contact numbers for accessible transport services for older and disabled people.

And anyone wanting to know about public transport within a specific area of the Wokingham district can get hold of a copy of the council’s updated ‘Your Travel Guide’ series, with one edition covering Wokingham and another covering Twyford and Woodley. The booklets include up-to-date timetables of all buses and trains as well as other useful information to help residents plan their journey.

The updated leaflet and guides are available from the district council offices at Shute End in Wokingham, Wokingham Town Hall Information Centre and the district’s libraries. Anyone wanting copies to be sent to them should call the council’s transport team on (0118) 974 6472. Alternatively, they can be downloaded as .pdf documents from: http://www.wokingham.gov.uk/transport-roads-waste/public-transport

Cllr Anthony Pollock, executive member for highways and transport, said: “These leaflets are designed to make it easier for everyone to find out how to get around the Wokingham district by public transport, which is important to help reduce congestion on our roads. They have been updated to include the latest information on routes and timetables and I hope people find them useful when planning to get out and about.”
