About Us

You may be familiar with our yellow, green and blue Coasthopper buses, but you may not be aware of what a success story they are.

Set up from scratch in 1996 by Norfolk County Council and award-winning bus operator Norfolk Green, Coasthopper was the first regular bus along the fabulous North Norfolk Coast from Sheringham to Hunstanton for many years. The main idea was to reduce car dependency for access to the area, for visitors and residents.

Coasthopper is now one of the fastest-growing bus routes in the UK. During 2008 it ran its most frequent summer service ever, up to every 30 minutes from Cromer and Sheringham to Wells, Hunstanton and King's Lynn and this year most buses are being extended at each end, to improve connections with train services.

For 2009, Norfolk Green and Norfolk County Council have jointly invested over £600,000 in a new fleet of fully accessible, ultra-low emission buses for Coasthopper, and given the whole route a makeover - if you haven’t done so already, come on board and get a better, greener view of the North Norfolk coast, all year round.
