From the 16th August, Fastrack night routes have changed and route E has been extended to serve Bluewater.

Our new night route N, has replaced the overnight journeys that previously operated on route A. Route N now runs from Amazon to Dartford, via Temple Hill, and then follows the B route to Bluewater and on to Gravesend. As Kent's only 24 hour bus service, we have made this change to connect Dartford and Gravesend overnight. We are now also serving Darent Valley Hospital overnight.
This service runs hourly between 2330 - 0530 everyday (times vary by day).

As a result, route A no longer operates through the night. From Saturday, the last evening trips on route A will depart at midnight, with services restarting at 04:30 on Mondays - Saturdays, and 0500 on Sundays.

Route E has been extended to use the brand-new busway through the Whitecliffe development. This connects Castle Hill, Alkerden Academy, and Whitecliffe, providing a direct route to Bluewater. Fastrack is now the quickest way from Ebbsfleet to Bluewater and its over 300 shops, restaurants and activities, with adult single fares between Ebbsfleet and Bluewater still just £2.
The service runs half-hourly everyday.

There have also been minor changes to other routes to ensure consistency across the network.

These are both exciting developments for Fastrack. We are glad to be serving more people overnight and connecting more people with where they want to go.
