Timetables

A new comprehensive timetable book covering Cornwall’s bus services has been published to take effect from 1 September 2024.

Note that the composite timetable does not include the services run by First specifically for Truro and Penwith College, nor the GoCornwall services to Callywith College, although the general public can catch these services if they wish.

I have extracted from the composite guide the timetables for individual services that passengers may find more convenient to download than wading through the whole book that has over 100 pages. These are the new timetables which come into effect on 1 September 2024. Note that the new timetable book has mistakenly omitted the 16/16A Rosehill Gardens, Penzance to St Ives timetable. I have included it in the listing below using the March 2024 version. As far as I can ascertain, it is virtually unchanged from 1 September. I have also included my own compilation of the T2/27E between Truro and St Austell as both the First and Go Cornwall versions of this route are not easy to follow and neither contains both the T2 and the 27E in the same timetable.

I have also included links to the individual timetables for the routes to Truro and Penwith Colleges and to Callywith College. These timetables are, to the best of my knowledge, the correct timetables for the new academic year of 2024/25. Although the news item released in early August about the timetable changes said, in respect of the First 160 route between St Ives and Penwith College, that "A revised timetable will be introduced”, I cannot find a timetable for this route anywhere on the First website or on the Traveline website. I must now conclude that the route has been dropped and I have deleted it from the listing. The only route specifically to Penwith College is now the 390 from Camborne. There are, of course, other normal service buses serving routes to or close to Penwith College. Go Cornwall Bus has now produced, for the first time in two years, a comprehensive timetable book covering all the routes to and from Callywith College.

For residents of the Rame peninsula who catch the Cremyll Ferry to Plymouth, I have included the ferry timetable and the timetable for Plymouth Citybus 34 that serves Stonehouse where the Cremyll Ferry lands and the Devonport drop off point from the Torpoint ferry.

Go Cornwall Bus have produced a useful mini-timetable booklet called Tamar Connections that includes those GCB services that cross the Tamar between Plymouth and South East Cornwall (nos. 10, 11, 12, 70, 71, 75), plus Plymouth Citybus no. 34. The latest version of this booklet was published in July 2024. It will need to be updated to reflect timetable changes from 1 September. If and when it is republished, I will post a link to it here.
