Brighton & Hove has the first buses in the UK that can run in zero-emissions mode whenever they go through the city centre. We've invested £9.9 million in 30 extended range hybrid electric buses, set to run in zero-emissions mode in the city’s Ultra Low Emissions Zone (ULEZ).
As a mark of respect for those who fought and died for Britain at 11am today our drivers, if safe to do so, may be pulling over on route to observe the 2 minute silence. Lest we forget.

A fake photograph of a bus stop display board has been circulating on social media suggesting a political and offensive statement has been added to the display board. This is purely a fake image which Brighton & Hove Buses has not been involved with in any shape or form.
IMPORTANT UPDATE: We regret all buses are being withdrawn from service due to the extreme weather, causing dangerous conditions on local roads and as requested by the Police. We're sorry for the inconvenience caused and will get buses back out when it is safe to do so.
Join us for a one off final journey on the bendy bus on Monday 7 November.
We know there are some bendy bus fans out there and we wanted to give our customers the opportunity to ride the route 25 on a bendy bus for one last time.
