Each column is one journey, headed by the time it sets off; one that finishes short of the usual end says where ("to …") — not every journey on this route runs the whole way. A · means that journey does not stop there. Times are shown at the route's main timing stops — buses serve all stops in between. Switch a table to All stops for every stop it calls at, or open a stop's own page for live departures there.
Christmas & bank holidays
These dates are not the usual timetable for the day they fall on. They come from the operator’s published data, which for Christmas and New Year is often late or incomplete, so check with National Express before you travel. Everything above is an ordinary week.
Not published yet: Christmas Day and 28 December. Operators often publish festive timetables only a few weeks ahead, so check again nearer the date.

Frequently asked questions
What time is the first 022 coach?
The first 022 departure on weekdays leaves at 05:45 (check the full timetable below for your stop, as times vary along the route — weekend times can differ).
What time is the last 022 coach?
The last 022 on weekdays leaves its first stop at 23:40. Always check the timetable for your specific stop — later stops are reached after this time.
How much does the 022 coach cost?
This is a long-distance coach service, so the England £3 bus fare cap does not apply — nor do local bus tickets or passes. Coach operators set their own fares and price by demand, so booking further ahead is usually much cheaper than buying on the day.
Who runs the 022 coach?
The 022 is operated by National Express.
