Proposed NEW M10 service linking Churchdown & Innsworth with Denmark Road High School

 

We have designed the proposed NEW M10 service, to best meet the needs of those who expressed an interest in a new route. We are open to further ideas and requests for additional bus stops, and would ask for these to be submitted for consideration by email to operations@marchants-coaches.com.

 

Subject to sufficient interest and commitment, the NEW M10 service would start from Wednesday 3rd September 2025 and operate on Denmark Road High School and Sir Thomas Rich’s School term dates. Whenever possible we try to accommodate early finishes, and any special timetables would be notified to parents / carers by email.

You must be at a bus stop and give such an indication in sufficient time to enable the driver to stop safely.
