The county council is backing the new services which will run between Boston and Lincoln and Boston and Spalding.

The Boston and Lincoln buses will call at the Pilgrim Hospital, Coningsby, Woodhall Spa and Metheringham.

The Boston and Spalding service will call at Sutterton, Gosberton and Pinchbeck. The new services will run for a trial period of six months.

Council officer Paul Harvey said: "These new Sunday services will provide improved access for shopping, especially during Christmas and the sales, visiting friends and family, and leisure travel for sightseeing, all while being able to leave the car at home.

"They will run for a six-month trial period initially, and we encourage people to take advantage of them as much as possible to ensure that they are able to continue."
