Sherford to Plympton bus links

Comments

Need access to schools, shops, doctors, dentist, vets, sports and social activities from sherford. Walking or cycling access from sherford to plympton is not safe.

My doctor, dentist and pharmacy are in Plympton. I am nearly 80 and although I drive at the moment this won’t last forever. Lots of people living in Sherford do not drive or have access to a cat.

A link between plymstock and plympton and vice versa is needed massively

I live in Sherford and two of my sons go to school in Plympton. We would love to see a bus route from Plympton to Sherford. Would make such a difference to us.

It is needed

There is no public transport from Sherford to Plympton. Is unsafe to walk due to no footpaths. I have to drive my son everyday due to this reason. Get this sorted. The people that live in Sherford shouldn't have to be doing this just to get the basic infrastructure available.

This would help me get to work

I live in Sherford and our kids need a bus to Plympton. Kids are walking along a dangerous road where there are Jo pavements or descent lighting. This is an accident waiting to happen.

It is utterly ridiculous that there is no safe passage to Plympton, given its proximity to Sherford and the new crematorium now open. How will residents from across the city access the crematorium if they don’t drive?? I have seen teenagers trying to make their way to and from school along that fast loving dangerous road, as there is no alternative. This is an accident waiting to happen and could so easily be resolved by adding a diversion to an already existing bus route.

I live in sherford and have a disabled mum that lives in plympton

I live in Sherford. There are no safe pedestrian routes into Plympton. My children also go to school in Plympton.

I live in Sherford and my 14 year old daughter goes to school in Plympton and is unable to travel to and from school on her own.

Clare McCann (Plymouth, 2024-10-22)

It’s our nearest town, has employment, all amenities and my GP is there too. Also has a quicker bus link with Derriford Hospital which is much better than the gruelling current one hour route via The city centre, a total detour! My kids go to school in Plympton and it is unsafe to walk or cycle despite the short distance! Ridiculous.

a bus route between Sherford and Plympton is essential. To walk it is lethal.

David Lee (Sherford, 2024-10-22)

I live in sherford but work in Plympton and would rather have public transport then have to add to the omissions that are already too high

Debbie Pinder (Plymouth, 2024-10-22)

I live in Sherford and work in Plympton. It would make life a whole lot easier.

Katheryne Jones (Plymouth, 2024-10-22)

Sherford and Elburton are in need of a bus route to/from Plympton because the council/highways authority wont fund a pedestrian link along a very busy fast road from Haye Rd to Valley Road. I have seen people walking on this fast road on multiple occasions which is very brave of them and they are at serious risk of being killed.

Nicola Gill (Plymouth, 2024-10-22)

They badly need this service most Doctors are in plympton not everyone has car or drive .

Heather Hawken (Plymouth, 2024-10-22)

It is badly needed

Richard Hawken (Plymouth, 2024-10-22)

The infrastructure has not been build to support this town or residents. Children are walking to school heels and Plympton Academy on dangerous roads with no footpath. I take my children to school as the bus would be £50 a week for them to go to school which there is only 10 seats which Plympton Academy run. I now take another residents son to and from school. As they cannot afford the bus fees. There is no space for him and I almost hit this child on the road going past plants galore on the bend behind st Elizabeth house. It’s dangerous and a disgrace that the councils have not supported the connection between Plympton and Sherford. What is it going to take an accident and someone to loose their life before there is a change?!

I have friends living in Sherford who need their own bus-route facility.

Valerie Wells (Plymouth, 2024-10-22)

#53

Because I live in Sherford and have children who go to school and have friends in plympton and they have no safe way of waking there at all, so can is the only way.

Total lack of infrastructure at SHERFORD commercially, after 10 years into construction

Paul Christie (Plymouth, 2024-10-23)

I’m signing this as I live up in Urban quarter and the walk down to the bus stop is a pain

Tiana Jeffery (Plymouth, 2024-10-23)

#66

We need this route with no shops in Sherford

Lianne Spampanato (Plymouth, 2024-10-23)

#69

I don’t drive so this would be beneficial for me and loads of other people

Tammy Bailey (Sherford, 2024-10-23)

A much needed bus route long in the waiting. They do have shops, supermarkets and many other practical facilities in Plympton - something we don’t have in Sherford. In particular safety for children who attend Plympton schools.

Michael Bennetts (Plymouth, 2024-10-23)

I live in sherford, my son goes to school in plympton. There is no way of getting there safe without driving

Louise Trenerry (Plymouth, 2024-10-24)

This would allow more people to access Plympton independently from there home.

Charlie Sowden (Sherford, 2024-10-27)

#91

I need this bus route as I do not drive and currently I am having to take two buses totalling sometimes an hour for what could be a ten minute journey.

Emma Honeywill (Plymouth, 2024-10-27)

#92

It’s ridiculous there isn’t a route

Marie Smart (Plymouth, 2024-10-27)

we need easier access for non drivers from sherford to plympton

emily squire (Plymouth, 2024-10-27)

I'm signing because we ha e abus route to plymstock and city centre but most residents have doctors in plympton and children in school and it's a nightmare having to get a bus to city centre then a bus from there to plympton .

Laura Snell (PLYMOUTH, 2024-10-27)

#98

I am signing this as there is no buses and there is no way of getting to Plympton safely.

Julie Goldsmith (Plymouth, 2024-10-27)

#99

We need a direct bus route from Sherford to Plympton.

Joanne Squire (Plymouth, 2024-10-27)

#102

It is of much detriment not having a bus route to Plympton! My son goes to school there and has to rely on lifts or get 2 buses and to school which takes and hour and a half. This route I am sure will have the demand to cover costs

Kerry Allkins (Plymouth, 2024-10-27)

#105

I’m signing because if I were to go from Plympton to sherford I would need to catch two buses. One into town and then one from town to Plymstock which is very time consuming and uses a lot of fuel. If there was a bus linked from Plympton through sherford to plymstock it would be very convenient for local residents that are unable to drive.

There are numerous children currently walking to and from school from Sherford to Plympton which is extremely dangerous due to the lack of pavements.

Louise TRICKEY (Plymouth, 2024-10-27)

#110

The doctors surgery is in plympton and I don’t drive meaning I have to either get a bus into Plymouth then another to plympton or arrange a lift from someone, so a bus directly to plympton would be super convenient.

Amber Gilley (Sherford, 2024-10-27)

#111

I travel a lot between plymstock and plympton and have to use my car because there is no bus route

Kenneth Matthews (Plymouth, 2024-10-28)

#112

In the whole of Plymouth, the only route that isn’t available, is Plympton/sherford/plymstock

Keeley Mitchell (Plymouth, 2024-10-28)

#116

There desperately needs a safe and practical link between sherford and plympton.

In addition a pedestrian walkway between Sherford and saltram specifically along Haye road.

Emma Holden (Plymouth, 2024-10-28)

live in plymstock, work in plympton, 10 minute car journey takes 1.5 hours by bus

amy squire (plymouth, 2024-10-28)

#119

I'm signing because My son struggled getting to Plympton for school due to lack of public transport.Also,it would be good to access shopping in the Ridgeway but there is no way of getting there from Sherford.

Marie Baker (Plymouth, 2024-10-28)

#120

Nicola Lillicrap (Plymouth, 2024-10-28)

#122

Morgan Noad (Plymouth, 2024-10-28)

We live in sherford and my daughter needs a decent daily bus route to work in plympton. I see poor kids walking via the busy lanes in rain and poor conditions to get to plympton academy. A bus is needed even if only a smaller type bus to start with

Carron Clark (Plymouth, 2024-10-29)

i want a bus to from sherford to plympton because i have special needs

jake proctor (plymouth, 2024-10-29)

#136

My son works in Plympton. To get the bus he needs to travel into the town centre and back out to Plympton, this is costly and takes a long time. I need to drive him to work as he can't be independent in his travel.
If there was a safe pavement up Hercules Road and over the A38 that would also be useful.

Tracy Daykin (Plymouth, 2024-10-30)

#137

My family live in Sherford. One of us works in Plympton and the children go to school in Plympton. We have one car. If that car is in use we have over an hour journey by bus to get to school or work. This could be a 10 minute journey.

Katie Lethbridge (Plymouth, 2024-10-30)
