COACH firm Wessex Connect has opened a new depot in Avonmouth. The firm, which runs services for Bristol University and UWE, hopes to expand its services in Bristol.

A spokesman for the firm said: "We had simply run out of space at our former depot in Filton. We have made this move because we are looking to expand and take on more routes. We are thrilled with the new facilities we have."
