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.
Tickets on the 511
First Norfolk & Suffolk listed day returns on this route for adults and young people when it last published its fares.
Ticket types come from First Norfolk & Suffolk's own fares data on the Bus Open Data Service, last updated 5 June 2025 — over a year ago, so what is sold today may differ. That dataset lists what's sold, not what it costs, so check prices with First Norfolk & Suffolk.
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 First Norfolk & Suffolk before you travel. Everything above is an ordinary week.
Not published yet: Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, 28 December, New Year's Eve and New Year's Day. Operators often publish festive timetables only a few weeks ahead, so check again nearer the date.
