PlusBus

The PlusBus website has details of all the area bus tickets that can be bought with train tickets to many towns throughout the UK.

PlusBus recommends Traveline for timetable information and have provided a briefing for use in Traveline call centres to help agents answer any enquiries about the PlusBus scheme.

NaPTAN data when downloaded now includes a file StopPlusbusZones.csv which lists bus stops that are in a plus bus zone and for each one the PlusbusZoneCode which ties the stop to a particular rail station.

In the National Gazetteer are files:

PlusbusZones.csv - gives a list of the PlusbusZone codes and the name of the rail station.
PlusbusMapping.csv - gives the map boundaries for each of the Plusbus zones.

It is now technically possible for the Traveline journey planners to identify if the bus stop in a journey itinerary is within a plusbuszone. The green plusbus circle logo could appear beside that bus stop name with a link to the correct page on the PlusBus website.
