Frequently asked questions
Where does the C9 bus run?
4 buses are numbered C9, in Wroughton, Bargoed, Chelmsford & Great Bentley. Each one is listed above by area, with its timetable, stops and live map.
Why are there so many different C9 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 C9, and 4 of them do. The C9 in Wroughton has no connection to the C9 in Bargoed: different operator, different road, different timetable.
How do I find the right C9 bus timetable?
Find your part of the country in the list above and open the C9 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 C9 bus the same route in every town?
No. These are 4 unrelated services that happen to share a number, run by 4 different operators. Fares, timetables and accessibility differ on each one, so always open the specific C9 for your area.
