When it's a stagecoach bus that runs between Torquay/Newton Abbot and Exeter, that's when.

Anyone else noticed the number change? Anyone know why it's been changed?

Apparently, there is no longer a bus service from Exeter to Torquay via Dawlish etc. It now only goes as far as Teignmouth and turns around. Should you wish to get the bus to Torquay, you need to change at Teignmouth. Basically, they've scrapped the 85A.

well that's excellent for anyone needing to go to the hospital then. It's much easier to get to RDE.

New 12c replace 85, offers every half hour from Teignmouth now to Paignton via Torquay and South Devon College. Connects at Teignmouth 5 minutes.
Many got on 85 in Exeter and then moaned when it took so long via the coast road, X46 is fast direct.
