Arriva Routes 164, 163, 168 Change April 18

Three Arriva UK Bus routes will see service modifications on April 18 due to a planned demonstration, transit officials said. Routes 164, 163, and 168 will experience disruptions that day, with passengers advised to expect changes to regular service patterns. Officials said riders who regularly use these routes should consider alternative travel arrangements.

Demonstration Prompts Service Adjustments

The service changes stem from a demonstration scheduled for April 18, according to Arriva UK Bus. Transit agencies typically modify routes when public events, demonstrations, or road closures affect normal operating corridors. Officials said the adjustments are temporary and designed to maintain service while accommodating the demonstration. The company didn't specify the demonstration's location or which specific portions of the three routes will be affected, though officials said passengers should plan for potential delays throughout the day.

Three Routes Face Modifications

Routes 164, 163, and 168 will all see service modifications on April 18, officials confirmed. The company didn't release details about specific stops that might be skipped, detour paths, or whether service frequency will change on the affected routes. Officials said passengers can access live departure information through digital channels but didn't provide specifics about how long delays might last or what alternative routes riders could use. The agency said it'll provide journey planning tools to help passengers navigate the changes.

Single-Day Service Change

The modifications take effect April 18, 2026, officials said. The company didn't specify what time the changes will begin or when normal service will resume, though the adjustments appear to be limited to that single day. Officials said passengers should check for updates before traveling and allow extra time for their trips on April 18.

Riders Advised to Plan Ahead

Passengers who regularly use routes 164, 163, or 168 should plan their journeys in advance for April 18, officials said. The company advised riders to allow extra time and consider alternative travel arrangements if possible. Moovit provides real-time bus tracking and service alerts for Arriva routes, helping passengers navigate temporary service changes and find alternative connections when disruptions occur.
