Please find the attached run time report for the requested bus routes, stops and dates, showing actual minimum, maximum and average run times. The files are split into individual worksheets for each direction and month.

Please note detailed iBus data is only held for approximately 2 years. Therefore we only hold data from 13 October 2018.

We are currently unable to report on average bus speeds. However, as the bus speeds are linked to the run times, you should be able to get the bus speeds from the run times provided.

If you are considering submitting a further FOI request please think carefully about whether the request is essential at this current time, as answering FOI requests will require the use of limited resources and the attention of staff who could be supporting other essential activity. Where requests are made, please note that our response time may be impacted by the current situation.

If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable to access it for any reason, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal as well as information on copyright and what to do if you would like to re-use any of the information we have disclosed.

Yours sincerely
