These have come about following Western Greyhound's decision to withdraw the 510. Since we first learned of this we've been working closely with both Devon and Cornwall County Councils to see how we could ensure local residents still have access to a regular, reliable bus service. Key points of the new service are: Our Bude - Holsworthy - Okehampton - Exeter route to be renumbered from X9 to 6The new timetable maintains key journeys from the existing 510 timetable in addition to our existing X10On the 6 there will be two Sunday/Bank Holiday journeys between Bude and ExeterWhy the change to 6/6A? Well, 6 was the number used by Devon General for its service to Okehampton between 1930s and 1970s. The new service brings all services between Exeter and Okehampton into one timetable giving season Stagecoach ticket holders more journey choices, and a “new” number seemed like a good way to highlight this!"
