The UNO 635 has now been shortened from Hatfield to Stevenage with Hitchin no longer served, and renumbered 625.
The Hatfield- Watford section is still the 635, with a more direct route than before now straight along the A405. To compensate for not serving Brickett Wood village, How Wood & Park Street and the 601 withdrawal to Borehamwood HCC now assist to underwrite the 361& 2 run by Red Eagle which do.

 


The Government has made money available for councils to investigate franchising, and Herts Council will be conducting a feasibility study.  https://hertscouncil-newsroom.prgloo.com/news/funding-secured-to-explore-new-bus-operation-model-in-hertfordshire  Which services are being considered is not known yet but certainly somer Arriva services should be considered. These services, despite being well used, have suffered a steady stream of cutbacks over the past few years. Perhaps also there should be a requirement to provide Real Time Information on all services.

 

There are various timetable changes upcoming in May / June 2026 including to services 304 (Hitchin St Albans), FL7 Hitchin to Maulden, 9A/9B/9D Stevenage to Bedford (reduction in services), 55 Stevenage to Letchworth, and many of the SB services in Stevenage. See April May and June changes on the Intalink service changes page.
