Bus departure times and route
Bus service 27, which starts from Tongdean Lane adjacent to the Withdean Sports Complex Car Park entrance, operates to the city centre (Clock Tower in Queen's Road - for Churchill Square; North Street stop C - for The Lanes, North Laine and Old Steine). It runs every 15 minutes (Monday to Saturday daytimes) and every 30 minutes during the late evenings and on Sundays. Please visit the following link for further timetable information http://history.buses.co.uk/bustimes/tt27-280310.pdf
There is no charge for parking. The return fare on the bus is £3.60: this is a "City Saver" ticket which is also valid on other Brighton & Hove bus routes for a day's unlimited travel. Children 0-4 go free; those aged 5 - 13 pay 90p each way. For children accompanied by an adult there's a 40p return fare. The England National Bus Pass is also valid.
Although stopping en route, service 27 does offer a wider choice of destinations – including Brighton Station, Sea Life Centre and all points along Marine Parade.
Commuting by Park & Ride
The cost of commuting has come down as all ‘Saver’ tickets will be valid. This means it will be possible to take advantage of savings from the longer period ‘Saver’ tickets, which can be bought online at www.buses.co.uk, or from any post office or One Stop Travel shop. ‘Saver’ tickets also allow unlimited travel on all other Brighton & Hove bus services in the city (except City Sightseeing and Night Buses).
