Konectbus Changes

Konectbus has published changes to some of its services commencing on 12th April 2026 which are ‘designed to improve reliability, enhance connectivity, and better reflect changing travel needs’.


Three routes are of specific interest to users in East Norfolk with the first being a new route 2 between Eaton and Potter Heigham replacing part of the current 5B service. Picture shows the 5B being worked from Norwich by Konectbus (ex Go Ahead’s Bluestar) Mercedes-Benz Citaro HF55 JZD in December 2018.

There is also a new hourly service 10 between Norwich and Stalham replacing parts of current routes 5B,11B and 717. The current 5B Eaton to Stalham is being withdrawn and replaced by routes 2 and 10.


The Winterton and Hemsby to Norwich 717 service is being severely reduced to just two Saturday return journeys. The start of the 717 service was on 29th June 2024 and the photo supplied by Chris Speed records the inaugural run to Hemsby by ADL Enviro400 607 SN61 CZX.

My thanks to Mark for the heads up. Details of all the Konectbus changes, including the new timetables, can be found here.
