Following the closure of Albert Street this week due to carriageway works, some parents have been in touch to find out how it will affect school buses.
Southern Vectis (thanks Wayne) have provided VB with details of all bus routes affected by the Albert Street road closure (Monday 9th May until 09:00 on Tuesday 17th May). Details of diversion when the High Street closes Wednesday 18 until approx 4pm on Tuesday 24 May to follow in the next day or so.
