Fox Connect – the new flexible bus service
Q: What is FoxConnect?
A: It’s a flexible service helping you to travel between villages in the county. You choose where to be picked up and dropped off within a certain area. It’s available in South West Leicestershire, Melton, North West Leicestershire and Market Harborough. You can travel anywhere within each ‘zone’ and book either on the app or by phone.
Q: Where has the money come from?
A: Partly from the Government as part of our review into supported bus services.
Q: What else has changed?
A: We’ve improved some existing bus services in Loughborough and North West Leicestershire. There’s also a new, direct bus linking Hinckley and Fosse Park and a one-year pilot ‘shopper’ service connecting Market Harborough to Corby.
Q: What’s next?
A: We’ll be working with commercial operators this summer to review existing bus services in Hinckley and parts of Blaby district and Oadby and Wigston borough.
