Wiltshire Council has expanded its Wiltshire Connect service to include the Warminster, Mere and surrounding south-west Wiltshire areas.  It hopes this will reduce isolation, improve access, and support sustainable travel across the region.

The new services follow successful rollouts in both the Pewsey Vale and the Royal Wootton Bassett and Malmesbury areas, and serve the rural communities of south-west Wiltshire in the Warminster and Mere area. The new service also provides new connections to Frome in Somerset, and Shaftesbury and Gillingham in Dorset.

With seamless connections to rail services at Warminster, Gillingham, Tisbury and Frome, plus new direct links to major attractions such as Stourhead, Longleat, Shearwater and Center Parcs, Wiltshire Connect is the perfect way to explore the area – and beyond.

The buses operate on an on-demand basis, which allows passengers to book a bus from a stop of their choosing in the service area to their destination at a time to suit them, either by booking through the Wiltshire Connect smartphone app or by phone.
