The Rutland R1 bus, which runs between Melton, Oakham, Uppingham in Corby, has a new timetable

from today in a bid to improve reliability at peak times and improve journey times on a couple of the runs. The new timetable, from operators Blands, is available online and on the bus itself. Also, in Stamford a £1.50 fare cap applies to local bus services from today operated by Blands in Stamford, thanks to funding from Lincolnshire County Council through the Government's Bus Service Improvement Plan. The scheme starts today and runs until March 2027.
