Buses run later for city lights switch-on

PEOPLE travelling to the city centre for the Christmas lights switch-on next week can take advantage of extra park and ride services.

Buses will run later into the evening on Thursday to make it easier for families to travel into the city.

The Birstall, Enderby and Meynell’s Gorse services, which are jointly run by Leicester City Council and Leicestershire County Council, will run every 15 minutes until 8.30pm, with the last bus out of the city centre departing at 9pm.

Group tickets are £4 for up to five people travelling together in the same car.

All sites have free parking and free Wi-Fi is available on all buses.

More information, including the location of the sites, fare prices and more, is available on the Leicester Park and Ride website at:
