Public Transport
Bus transport for many years was provided by National Bus, under the Hampshire Bus sector. Long ago public transport along the A30 was provided by the Hants and Dorset bus company, but this predates much development in the area. After the privatisation of the bus industry, services are run in the area by Stagecoach, now under the Stagecoach in Hampshire sector.
Former notable bus routes were the 39, 40, 50 and 59, although much of this network was considerably altered in the year 2000. The network was very extensive and there were many historical bus routes in Basingstoke. Bus routes for the estate are now served by routes 1 and 2, the former serving Brighton Hill at a ten minute frequency for much of the time. Exceptions are on Sundays/Bank Holidays and in evenings. Route 2 normally operates every twenty minutes. Of the two routes, route 1 is seen as the more popular route for the Town Centre, operating direct via Winchester Road.
