Farnham Town Centre Improvement Works

Update for 12 May 2026

From Tuesday 12 May, the nightworks taking place have been completed and the buses will revert to their normal route through the town centre.

Update for 11 May 2026

From Monday 11 May, the bus stop at The Borough will reopen and passengers can start to use this stop again for services 4, 5, 16, 18, 19 and 65.

The two bus stops on Castle Street are temporarily relocated further up the road.  They are currently located outside and opposite Guildford House.  Locations further down the hill have been looked at, but due to the works areas and volume of traffic a safe alternative was not found. These stops remain the safest option for passengers and drivers as they offer kerbside stopping for wheelchairs, pushchairs and walking, as well as being clear of the traffic lights entering and exiting the work area. Stagecoach service 4 is also now temporarily stopping at South Street while the Castle Street stops are suspended, to provide closer access to the town centre.

Update for 30 March 2026

On Monday 30 March 2026, the next phase of works in Farnham begins, as part of the Farnham town centre improvement works, and The Borough will be reopening. There will also be continuing works on Castle Street under temporary traffic lights.

Buses will be able to access The Borough again, and therefore the bus routes have been revised and will change from the current arrangements in place since 5 January 2026. The new timetables are below and have been updated as necessary to allow for traffic conditions.

4/5 - These services will revert to using the Farnham town centre loop of South Street, Union Road and Downing Street. Service 4 will enter Farnham from Castle Street and will turn left into The Borough and service 5 will enter Farnham from East Street and then both services will turn around using South Street, Union Road and Downing Street as the services used to do. Buses will no longer travel down West Street to turn around. The timetable has been revised.

16 - Buses heading towards Aldershot will once again use Union Road, Downing Street, The Borough and Woolmead Road. The buses will run at the same times as they used to do in December 2025.

18 - Buses heading towards Aldershot will once again use Union Road, Downing Street, The Borough and Woolmead Road. The buses will run at the same times as they used to do in December 2025.

19 - Buses heading towards Aldershot will once again use Union Road, Downing Street, The Borough and Woolmead Road. The buses will run at the same times as they used to do in December 2025.

65 - Buses heading towards Guildford will once again use West Street, The Borough and Woolmead Road. The buses will run at the same times as they used to do in December 2025.

404 - The service will revert to the normal route where journeys back from Farnborough will once again turn left at the bottom of Castle Street, and then continue to either Wrecclesham or Farnham Hospital. There are a few minor changes to the timetable to give a few minutes of extra running time.

46 - The route remains unchanged from the current arrangements and will continue to enter Farnham via South Street, and will then terminate on Union Road. The return journey will continue to leave Union Road via Long Bridge and Firgrove Hill.

Passengers should bear in mind that this service operates slightly earlier than the Metrobus 612 service, arriving at the "Crowhurst Mead" bus stop at 07:59, to arrive at Oxted School for 08:14.
