Bus passengers using First Berkshire services should note some changes coming into force over the next few weeks.

The Service 90, formerly the 190, which travels between Reading, Wokingham and Bracknell, will serve Great Hollands from Saturday, January 17.

There will also be minor changes made to Services B2, B3, 94 and 191. On the same date, a new winter timetable will start on Green Line 701/702 with the introduction of Route 700 at certain times of the day.

Saturday shopping service X1 from Bracknell to Reading will no longer operate after Saturday, December 20 as the Route 90 now provides a more frequent service to Reading from all X1 stops in Bracknell and runs seven days a week.

From Sunday, December 28, all journeys on 151/151A during school holidays will start and finish at Wokingham train station.

Simon Goff, First Berkshire general manager, said: ^We are always looking to find ways to improve our services including introducing extra journeys on some routes such as the 191 and offering better access to shops as in the case of Service 90 or links to other public transport.

^It is with regret that we are withdrawing Service X1 because of low patronage, but we shall keep our routes under review to ensure we are meeting the needs and expectations of our customers.^
