routes. For timetable details please contact the following
companies:-
(No.25 bus) is a regular ' hop-on-hop-off ' service which
runs a circular route from Plymouth railway station, along

Plymouth Pavilions.Train passengers can buy a through
ticket
The A38 Devon Expressway:
links Plymouth A38 to the motorway network at Exeter. the
fast dual carriageway leads directly onto the M5 motorway
and the rest of the UK motorway network. There isnst even
a stop sign or a traffic light between Plymouth and most
of the major mainland UK cities. And express coach
services connect the city with other towns and cities
across the country National Express Coach Service.
Parking:
There are many 'Pay and Display' car parks in the City
Centre but, owing to limited parking available in the
Barbican area, it's a good idea to leave your vehicle in
the multi-storey car-park at Coxside and walk across the
lock gates. Park & Ride facilities are available at
Coypool (near Marsh Mills roundabout) and at Milehouse
(follow the signs to Plymouth Argyle). You may leave your
car free of charge at the attendant supervised car parks
then, for a modest sum, take a bus ride into the City
Centre. This service operates from early morning until
about 6.30 p.m. every day except Sundays. (Please note
that, for obvious reasons, there is no Saturday service
from Milehouse when
Plymouth Argyle F.C . is playing a home
match) Park & Ride also operates from Ivybridge train
station (just off the A38 Devon Expressway).
