New 332 Bus Timetable – Effective September 2025
Earlier and later weekday services now connect Mayland and Steeple with Southminster and Burnham-on-Crouch rail stations at work accommodating hours, offering improved commuter links for transport – including to and from London
Love Your Bus: 332 Bus Win for Work, Rail, and Mayland to London Links
Effective from September 2025
Good news – changes as a result of Mayland Parish Council’s successful Love Your Bus grant bid means the village now has access to earlier and later services. The new timetable aims to improve commuter transport into urban areas by linking parishioners in Mayland and Steeple with rail stations in Southminster and Burnham-on-Crouch at work-accommodating hours. It also provides later transport options into Maldon and Chelmsford, as well as a later return option into the village for Ormiston Rivers Academy students

These amended services run on weekdays and are designed to allow for later return journeys into the villages than previously possible.
The changes mean residents returning from London Liverpool Street can now leave as late as 17:56 and still connect with bus services returning them home.
The amendments also mean that attendees of Ormiston Rivers Academy now have an additional later transport option to rely on when returning to the villages.
