First Devon

'MTV Crashes Plymouth' has finally arrived and takes place tonight on Plymouth Hoe, feature a number of headline music acts including Kaiser Chiefs, Example, The 1975 and Kiesza.

20,000 tickets have been sold so there will be a lot of traffic and parking will be limited. So were running extra evening Park & Ride buses to take the strain getting into the City Centre for the show and then getting home afterwards!

Our normal two services will be running:
PR1 from The George (Southway) and Milehouse (Argyles Home Park)
PR2 from Coypool (Plympton)

PR1 will run every 15 minutes from The George and Milehouse 1930 (from the George) and until 1943 (from Milehouse). Then return buses will run from stand A12 on Royal Parade (by Poundland) at at 2230, 2245 and 2300 and then approx. every five minutes after that until the last bus at 2330.

PR2 will run approx every 15 minutes from Coypool until 1945. Then return buses will run from stand A12 on Royal Parade (just down from Poundland) at 2230, 2245 and 2300 and then approx. every 5 minutes until the last bus leaves at 2335.
