Eastbourne Borough Council are taking over the administration of Countycards for the Eastbourne area.

Consequently from 6th March 2006 all Countycard applications and renewals will be dealt with at the Eastbourne Borough Council offices at 1 Grove Road.

After this date, The Bus Stop Shop at Eastbourne Railway Station will be unable to deal with any enquiries regarding Countycards.

Seven Sisters Road will be closed for flood alleviation works to be carried out from Monday 20th March for approximately three weeks.

Services 1 and 4 will be diverted via Anderida Road in both directions while these works are carried out. Temporary Stops will be placed in Anderida Road.
