- Journey times have changed on all days of the week to allow for summer traffic levels - please check your timings carefully.
- All daytime buses from Ryde will operate 5 minutes earlier.
- The timetable has been amended for reliability - please check your timings carefully as some early morning and early evening journeys will now operate up to 10 minutes earlier.
- To improve reliability there has been a small route change in Sandown - buses towards Yaverland will now operate from Broadway via the standard Route 2/3/8 routing between Melville Street and Sandown Library. The Pier Street and New Street stops will therefore only be served by journeys towards Shanklin but customers can remain on the bus via Yaverland if they need to get off there.
- The timetable has also been amended for reliability; all journeys operate later than current timings.
