A seasonal bus route connecting Cleveleys, Blackpool, and St Annes is back in operation for the summer months. Service 21, known as the Coastliner, resumed travel on 14 April 2026 and will continue to run until 29 October 2026.
The route, operated by Transporabus (trading as Transpora North West), had been paused for the winter season since 16 February 2026. The service is designed to support residents and visitors by providing a direct coastal link along the promenade. Key stops along the route include North Pier, the Cabin, Norbreck Castle, and the Blackpool Bus Station.
Travel information is managed by Lancashire County Council. Passengers looking for travel options can purchase an Any4People day ticket for £9.00, and standard concessionary passes are valid for use on this service.
This route provides transport options for the area, which sees millions of visitors annually. The service connects passengers to various destinations across the coast, including areas managed by Blackpool Tourism Limited, such as the Blackpool Tower and the Sandcastle Waterpark.
