Wokingham Borough Council will use government grant money to temporarily bring back the Winnersh Triangle Park and Ride service into Reading. The service was suspended in November 2021 due to low passenger numbers. The grant will also be used to open a park-and-ride car park at Coppid Beech for the Lion4/X4 service.

The 500 service used to run every 15 minutes from Winnersh Triangle to Reading town centreA park and ride bus service is to be temporarily reinstated after a council received government grant money.

The new grant will also be used to open a park-and-ride car park at Coppid Beech for people catching the Lion4/X4 service on the A329 Reading Road. He said: "We've had a lot of queries about the future of these sites - and we can assure people that we've worked hard to find realistic ways of bringing them back into use despite the massive and unforeseen changes brought about by the pandemic.

He added: "We urge everyone to make the most of these opportunities to leave the car at home - your actions now will decide whether they're still here later."
