End of road for Plymouth 34A

The only service into the historic 19th century Royal William Yard in Plymouth was withdrawn after 27 May following funding cuts. Plymouth Citybus service 34A ceases, a half-hourly short working of service 34, linked the city centre with the Royal William Yard, the former main victualling depot for the Royal Navy, a Grade I and Grade II listed building completed in 1835 and now being redeveloped with apartments, offices and restaurants.

Operating it on the second last day was ex-Go-Ahead London Alexander Dennis Mini Pointer Dart 250 (LX05 EYP), pictured late on the Friday afternoon passing through the granite arched gateway, which is topped by a statue of King William IV.
