141 Nottingham–Sutton-in-Ashfield explained

Route 141 is a bus route that operates between Nottingham and Sutton-in-Ashfield.[1]

In early July 2022, Trent Barton announced that it would stop running route 141 in September.[2] However, later in the month it was announced that Nottinghamshire County Council would subsidise the service for a year and would tender the route with local bus operators.[3] On 18 August 2022, it was announced that Stagecoach would take over the route on 5 September.[4] [5]

The service operates hourly between Nottingham, Hucknall, Mansfield, and Sutton-in-Ashfield.[6] It formerly continued to Clay Cross.[7]
