Further timetables
One way system
In order to prevent traffic congestion in the village the bus company operates a ONE WAY SYSTEM through the village, and ALL buses ENTER the village from the top of the bypass (A379) and EXIT at the roundabout by the pub.
So TAKE CARE! – the timetabling for each bus journey means that buses from either direction can be in the village at a similar time; when catching your bus make sure that it is going to the right destination!
Great Western Railway run the services operating in the West Country.
The nearest stations for Aveton Gifford are at Plymouth, Totnes & Ivybridge. They are managed by Great Western Railway.
