Immediate withdrawal of mobile library service

LibraryPlus Mobile Library Service – immediate withdrawal of service
The public consultation around the future of the Library Service has included the deletion of the Mobile Library Service and the service has been running as normal pending the final Council decision. More »
However, due to the age and the condition of the vehicle, there is a risk of incurring expensive repair work each time it goes out and the recent spending controls imposed by the Director of Finance under Section 114 mean that we have had to withdraw the service with immediate effect.
We will be contacting all existing Mobile Library customers individually to explain the situation.
We have also made arrangements for our Mobile Library Driver to continue to visit the mobile library stops for one last visit to see as many customers as possible. He will be stopping at the normal place at the normal time, but in a different vehicle, to collect stock from customers.
If customers are not able to attend the last mobile library visit they can return any items to any of our libraries. All overdue charges will be waived.
Any residents who would like to continue to use the library service, but are unable to visit their nearest library, can be considered for home delivery through our Library to You service. They can either speak to our mobile van driver at his last visit, or contact their nearest library for further details.
More information on a planned expansion of the Library to You service will be announced in due course.
If you have any further questions relating to the Mobile Library Service, please contact NLIS Feedback at NLISfeedback@firstforwellbeing.co.uk
Yours sincerely

New service X91 and extension to service 88
From Monday 6th November, 2017
These new services are being funded by new housing in Brackley, Silverstone and Towcester and are therefore designed to be fast and frequent, directly serving these sites and running on direct routes to their destinations. More »
Brackley
New twice-per-hour bus service from Brackley to Silverstone and Towcester, with one per hour running on to Northampton and one to Milton Keynes.
In Brackley, service X91 will serve Market Place, Tesco, Buckingham Road, Pavillons Way, Halse Road, Northampton Road and Poppyfields Way –replacing service BB1 which is withdrawn. It will also service the Turweston Road North site once the new medical centre and employment areas are opened.Journey time from Poppyfields Way in Brackley to the centre of Milton Keynes is as little as 54 minutes.Between Brackley and Silverstone it will run directly along the A43 and between Towcester and Milton Keynes it will run directly along the A5.
Passengers wishing to travel to Northampton from Poppyfields Way, Halse Road, Pavillons Way and Buckingham Road should board the X91 towards Brackley, which will then become service 88 (on most journeys) without needing to change buses in Brackley Market Place.Through fares will be available.
Syresham
Service 88 will continue to provide peak hour journeys to Northampton, whilst service X91 will introduce a new peak hour service to Milton Keynes. Furthermore, CountyConnectwill continue to provide a bookable service to Brackley and Towcester throughout the day.
Silverstone
New twice-per-hour bus service (88 and X91) from Silverstone to Brackley.88 will serve the White Horse stops and the X91 will remain on the A413 and serve Catch Yard Farm.
New bus service X91 runs from Silverstone every hour through the edge of Towcester and directly along the A5 in to Milton Keynes.The journey time to central Milton Keynes from Silverstone is as little as 42 minutes.
Towcester
Service 88 will now divert to serve Burcote Park.
New service X91 to Milton Keynes will serve the housing area of Buckingham Way, Swinneyford Road, Bickerstaffs Road, St Lawrence Road South and Burcote Road, and will reintroduce a service for Marlow Road.
Journey time from Burcote Road to Milton Keynes is as little as 26 minutes.
Service X88
We have been informed that Stagecoach service X88, which currently provides one additional journey per day between Brackley and Northampton, will be withdrawn from the same date.This means that the 0930 bus from Brackley, Whittlebury and Syresham to Northampton will no longer operate, nor will the 1403 return journey from Northampton. However both villages will continue to be served by County Connect.
