There will also be a return service for these locations.
National Express's return to the area was announced by North East Lincolnshire Council and its delivery partner Equans. Jonathan Ford, Equans senior transport officer, said: “It’s great to see the National Express serve North East Lincolnshire again. It is a key transport link that provides people the option to travel to far locations like London and Birmingham by bus, which can be a cheaper way to travel. We look forward to working with National Express more in the future.”
The Grimsby to Birmingham route (151) also began on April 3. It starts from Osborne Street, Grimsby and stops at Cleethorpes, Louth, Wragby, Lincoln, Newark-on-Trent, Leicester and finishes at Birmingham Coach Station.
Ed Rickard, National Express's service delivery director, said: “More and more customers are turning to coach travel as an affordable, reliable and sustainable way to get around. We're thrilled to bring our services back to Grimsby, offering residents better connectivity and choice of transport to help them get to where they need to be.”
Tickets for both services are already available to buy on National Express's website. This is great news for residents of North East Lincolnshire as it provides them with an affordable and reliable way to travel to London and Birmingham. It also helps to reduce the environmental impact of travel, as coach travel is much more fuel efficient than other modes of transport.
