15
Road Closure at Trowell

From 16th March until Mid August, Stapleford Road at Trowell will be closed between Trowell Grove and Pasture Road so that essential works can be carried out by Severn Trent Water.

During the closure 15 buses will be running via Stanton Road, Quarry Hill through to Moorbridge Lane where the normal route will be picked up at Pastures Road.

Customer wanting to travel from Trowell onto the 15 route can catch rainbow 2 and connect with 15 in Ilkeston Town Centre or on Stanton Road, through tickets will be available at no extra cost.

We will do all we can to keep the buses running on time and we can only apologise for any inconvenience. The situation is clearly beyond our control.
