National Express' service between Dorchester and London has restarted.

The 035 will operate a daily service, Monday to Sunday, between London and Weymouth via Dorchester and Bournemouth.

Chris Hardy, managing director of National Express, said: "We're excited to play our part in the UK public's safe return to travel.

"We want to make coach travel more convenient and with even greater value in 2021.

"We've removed the booking fee for any purchases made through a National Express online account and included more options to claim a refund or amend a journey if circumstances change."

This follows the launch of megabus' M3 service between Dorchester and London. Partnering with Yellow Buses, there will be one journey a day between Weymouth, Dorchester and London, Thursday to Monday.

Mark Venables, megabus managing director, said: "The staycation summer is fast approaching and the south coast is a firm favourite for many of us.

"We are making day trips and longer stays to visit loved ones and tourist hotspots easier than before and at the same time, creating connections between the largest cities as well as airports.
