A Walk and Ride bus. This service runs between the Castle entrance in Union Street and the Guildhall so people don't have to tackle the walk up Steep Hill. The route is operated by PC coaches who also do school runs with their other vehicles. As I got off this one, the driver had been called to do a school run instead of operating the shuttle, because the construction work on the new bypass had trapped the scheduled school bus. Hence the annunciator saying "not in service". This little vehicle is an Optare Solo, in 9m long, 30 seat layout.
