Great News for New Ash Green – The 489 Bus Service Is Saved (For Now)! 🙌
As your newly elected @reformparty_uk Kent County Councillor for Sevenoaks Rural North East, I hit the ground running. One of my first actions was to contact the Head of Service to urgently address the planned cancellation of the 489 bus — and I’m delighted to share that this vital rural service is no longer being cut on 1st June.
✅ From 2nd June, Go-Coach of Swanley will take over the route, continuing the existing timetable until the end of August.
This gives us vital breathing space while a long-term solution is explored over the summer months.
📣 This is a quick win for our new administration and a strong example of what can be achieved when residents and councillors work together.
🗣️ I will be keeping a close watch on developments and will continue to stand up for our rural communities, ensuring services like the 489 — which so many rely on — are protected and prioritised.
🙏 Thank you to every resident who spoke up — your voices were heard.
📌 With the 489 replacement service now confirmed until the end of August, please continue to share your experiences so we can build a solid case for making it permanent.
