Park & Ride services will start again from Sandon and Colchester from today (12 April).

Essex County Council’s Park & Ride will then also recommence on Monday (17 May) from Chelmer Valley.

But, the Broomfield Hospital Shuttle service remains suspended until further notice.

The council has said that a reduced timetable will be in place initially.

There will be services between 7am and 7pm Monday to Saturday, but passengers are being advised to check online before traveling for any updates or changes.

Services will be running in line with social distancing requirements and so the council is warning there "may be a slightly longer wait to board a vehicle due to reduce capacity onboard".

Passengers are asked to be patient and follow advice from service staff.

The latest updates can be found online.
