First Bus introducing new Saturday night service out of Newquay from 6 July
23 June 2024

First Bus are introducing a night service out of Newquay on Saturday/Sunday mornings. This is presumably designed to attract those working in the late night hospitality sector in the town and the customers enjoying themselves in those establishments and who live in the hinterland around Newquay. The start date for the service is Saturday 6 July. No end date has been specified for the service but I assume that First will see what the uptake is before deciding for how long to continue it.

Strangely, there has, to date, been no announcement by First of this new service on its website, nor does the service yet appear on the Traveline website. The information about the proposed service was brought to my attention by an eagle-eyed user of this website (Sim Harris), having spotted the timetable for it on bustimes.org. Thank you to Sim for telling me about it.

The N1 buses will leave Newquay bus station at 23 minutes past midnight and at the same time past each hour until 04:23 and will serve St Columb Minor, St Columb Major, Indian Queens, St Columb Road and Quintrell Downs before returning to Newquay. See N1 timetable.

Update
27 June 2024
The timetable is now available on Traveline and an end date of 7 September is specified. This confirms that this is a short-term summer service.
