The new Metrobus 400 route linking East Grinstead to Crawley, Gatwick Airport, East Surrey Hospital, Redhill, Godstone and Caterham has proved a big hit with passengers, says tourism officer Simon Kerr.

“We’ve had a rush of people coming to get their hands on a copy of the new bus timetable in unprecedented numbers: we have never experienced such a high demand.”

However Simon did allow that the new hourly route is not the only attraction as in addition to the popular new 400 service there have been cuts and alterations to other bus services in and around the town.

* Copies of the new timetable are available now at the library’s tourism desk.
