Bus

Avoid the driving and parking costs and let someone else do the driving instead. There is an extensive bus service connecting you with the whole of the Solent area.

The 28/28A service now serves North Whiteley, providing links to Botley and Swanwick stations and to Fareham. Take advantage of DfT funded £2 single adult fares to try the new bus service, available until 31 Ocotober 2023. 

Long distance routes, X4 and X5, offer direct links between Portsmouth and Southampton, and Fareham and Southampton.
