Over the last month, a number of changes have occurred to bus services across the county.
Changes include new operators, revised timetables as well as the extension of some routes.
On April 1, the annual open-top sightseeing bus tour that runs from Shrewsbury to Ironbridge returned.
Each year the bus takes tourists - and interested locals - from Shrewsbury town centre past Shrewsbury Abbey, Attingham Park, Wroxeter Roman city, Ironbridge and Much Wenlock.
Notably, one of the revisions set to occur over the next week includes the cancellation of route 3A from Saturday, April 26.
The service, which ran from Harlescott/Belvidere to Shrewsbury Bus Station, has been replaced, in part, by the new route 23A.
