Frequently asked questions

Why are there so many different 43 buses?

Route numbers in the UK are chosen locally — by the operator, or by the local transport authority that tenders the service — not from any national list. Nothing stops two towns hundreds of miles apart both running a 43, and 38 of them do. The 43 in Dublin has no connection to the 43 in Nottingham: different operator, different road, different timetable.

How do I find the right 43 bus timetable?

Find your part of the country in the list above and open the 43 that starts or finishes near you — each one links to its full timetable, every stop, a live map and its fares. If you know the stop you'll be waiting at, searching for the stop name instead gives you the next departures from that exact stop, which is more reliable than any timetable.

Is the 43 bus the same route in every town?

No. These are 38 unrelated services that happen to share a number, run by 36 different operators. Fares, timetables and accessibility differ on each one, so always open the specific 43 for your area.
