West Midlands bus route 360 was a 31-mile route that circumnavigated Coventry. Operated by Travel de Courcey, it was the longest urban bus route in Europe.[1][2][3]
Route 360 commenced operating on 9 June 2013 replacing routes 701 and 801.[4] It operated in both clockwise and anti-clockwise directions as routes 360C and 360A.[5]
It ceased on 23 July 2016, and was replaced by three routes:[6][7][8]
- 43: University of Warwick to Eastern Green
- 60: University of Warwick to Arena Park Shopping Centre via Coventry & Warwickshire University Hospital
- 61: Allesley Park to Arena Park Shopping Centre
It was ceased due to low passenger numbers.[7]
