In 2022 the City Council and all local bus operators set up the Leicester Buses Partnership to transform our bus network.

We aim to deliver an integrated network of 50 bus routes to 5 key standards

One Network electric frequent reliable easy great value

Our target is to increase bus use by 10% and satisfaction to 90% by 2030

Why One Network?

Passengers want a simple easy way to travel around Leicester by bus on any operator, on any route.

Why Five Standards?

Passengers have said improvements are needed in all these areas. We have an agreed level to reach for each standard by 2030.

We’re now delivering at pace

Electric buses in our distinctive green brand

Electronic information on buses and all boarding stops

Every 15 mins or better daytime Mon-Sat (main section)

Joint timetables across operators

Camera enforced bus lanes

Signal priority for late running buses

New bus shelters, stations and accessible stops

Leicester Buses One Network App and Website

Automatic ‘best fare’ ticketing with day and weekly capping

Simplified fares with no extra cost for using different operators

We’ve already achieved 75% transformation!

We’ve now got funded agreements in place for 90% transformation by 2030

We’re urgently seeking funds and local powers to achieve 100% transformation by 2030.
