Due to resurfacing work and repairs to the bus gate loops, Northgate Street will be closed to all traffic between 7:30pm and 6:00am on four consecutive nights - Sunday 12th March, Monday 13th March, Tuesday 14th March, and Wednesday 15th March 2006. During this time the following bus services will not serve bus stops on Pierrepont Street, Orange Grove, High Street, Northgate Street, Broad Street, Bridge Street, Grand Parade, Walcot Street, & Milsom Street. Instead the bus services will divert as follows:

These bus services will divert via Bath Bus Station/Dorchester Street, Broad Quay, Green Park Road, Charles Street, Chapel Row, Queen Square, Gay Street, George Street, before rejoining their regular routes. During the closure period, passengers are advised to use bus stops at either Bath Bus Station/Dorchester Street or Queen Square for the above services. These are the only two bus stop locations in Bath City Centre that the above bus services will serve during this time. This diversion will be followed in both directions of travel and there are two temporary stops in place at Queen Square – one stop for inbound buses, and one stop for outbound buses.

The Lansdown Park & Ride service will also be affected by the closure to Northgate Street and will use the stop on the east side of Queen Square (the old Park & Ride stop) rather than the regular stop on Milsom Street.
