Frequently asked questions

Where does the number 45 bus run?

25 buses are numbered 45, in Birmingham, Nottingham, Cardiff, Newport, Swansea, Walsall, Preston, Stevenage, Kendal, Edinburgh, London, Sudbury and 13 more places. Each one is listed above by area, with its timetable, stops and live map.

Why are there so many different 45 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 45, and 25 of them do. The 45 in Birmingham has no connection to the 45 in Nottingham: different operator, different road, different timetable.

How do I find the right 45 bus timetable?

Find your part of the country in the list above and open the 45 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 45 bus the same route in every town?

No. These are 25 unrelated services that happen to share a number, run by 25 different operators. Fares, timetables and accessibility differ on each one, so always open the specific 45 for your area.
