Arriva confirms depot closures

Arriva has confirmed the closure of its Aylesbury and High Wycombe depots.

The operator announced on its website today (25 June 2024) that it will close the depots on 27 July 2024.

After the closure, Arriva will no longer operate 11 routes that currently run from the sites. It will maintain operation of the X5 (Aylesbury to Hemel Hempstead), which is to be run from its Hemel Hempstead depot instead.

A statement on the website said: “We’re grateful for the professionalism and continued dedication of our colleagues during an extremely challenging period.”

The plan to close the sites was announced in May this year. Arriva said the depots were loss making, despite network changes to better reflect local demand being put in place.
