The Turquoise Line X13 will now offer faster journeys from Attleborough to Norwich, running directly along the A11.

This route will be extended to start and finish at Norwich Rail Station, making it ideal for day trips to London or for getting closer to Carrow Road on matchdays.

Additional Monday to Friday X13 journeys and an hourly Saturday service will start immediately, with the introduction of a new early morning journey on service 13.
