The inaugural World Public Transport Day has been celebrated at Eastbourne railway station.
The event on Friday 17 April was organised by Eastbourne Area Bus User Group with support from Marshlink community rail line officer Paul Bromley.
Travellers were offered information and maps showing bus and train routes from the station.
David Everson from EABUG said: “For many passers-by, it was a welcome chance to get clear, simple information without needing to navigate apps or websites.”
World Public Transport Day promoted itself as “a global celebration of the journeys that move us and the people who make them possible. From everyday commutes to extraordinary destinations, itʼs a day to celebrate how public transport connects us all – to work, to life, to each other.”
