The hopperbus network has shrunk in recent years, with service 905 between the University Park Campus and City Hospital (which was unique in being operated by CT4N at the end) disappearing at some point around 2023 - although I can’t find any exact details on that, as its existence wasn’t widely advertised in the first place - and service 902 between the University Park Campus and King’s Meadow Campus being withdrawn in 2025 following the closure of that campus. (The 902 also had its own uniqueness about it, in that it was usually operated by a Merc minibus rather than a decker.)
Service 904 between University Park Campus and the Royal Derby Hospital has become the latest casualty (no pun intended!), being withdrawn after the end of service on Friday 31st July, at the end of Arriva’s contract, following the relocation of teaching from Derby Medical School (at RDH) to Nottingham.
Seen here at Royal Derby Hospital on the final day of operation for the 904 is ADL Enviro400MMC 4537, having arrived on the 0635 904 from Nottingham.
