Network Norwich is the brand name given to First Norfolk & Suffolk bus services in and around the city of Norwich. First launched in September 2012, the network now consists of nine colour-coded lines extending across Norwich city centre, outer suburbs, and surrounding towns and villages across Norfolk and into Suffolk.

History

The network was launched on 23 September 2012, with the rebranding as several First Norfolk & Suffolk bus routes within the Norwich city area as colour-coded lines. The Charcoal Line was added most recently, being launched to Bungay in Suffolk in May 2017.

The network began with the repainting of existing buses into Network Norwich livery, a variant of FirstGroup's national corporate Olympia scheme, "dipped" with colour-coded front ends; these buses included Dennis Tridents and Volvo B7TLs with Plaxton President bodywork, Volvo B9TLs with Wright Eclipse Gemini 2 bodywork, and Volvo B7Ls and Volvo B7RLEs with Wright Eclipse bodywork.

The first brand new buses for the network, eight 10.8-metre, 37-seater Wright StreetLite DF single-deckers, were delivered in November and December 2014. Eleven longer-wheelbase 41-seater Wright StreetLite Max single-deckers were delivered for the Green Line in November 2015, followed by nine Wright StreetDeck double-deckers for the Pink Line in April 2016.

The Yellow Line was extended to Fakenham in north Norfolk on 3 April 2018, as First took over service X29 from Stagecoach in Norfolk, who ceased all operations in the area. On 3 September 2018, the Purple Line was extended with the launch of route 38a to Harleston. From 7 January 2019, the Charcoal Line is scheduled to be extended with Network Norwich taking over routes 40a and 41a from Konectbus.

An Alexander Dennis Enviro400 carrying the new excel route branding at Norwich bus station, March 2018

Norwich bus station is a major hub of the Excel bus network operated by First Norfolk & Suffolk, which provides services between Peterborough in Cambridgeshire and Lowestoft in Suffolk. The bus station provides the main interchange point between the western excel route between Peterborough, Wisbech, King's Lynn, Swaffham, Dereham and Norwich, and the eastern X1 route between Norwich, Acle, Great Yarmouth, Gorleston-on-Sea and Lowestoft; originally these 2 routes operated as 1 service (X1), but was split in into the 2 routes above in July 2014, for operational reasons, until February 2018 these both operated as X1, but Norwich To Peterborough was renamed excel to stop confusion between the routes.

Additionally, Norwich provides a hub for various Excel-branded feeder services which serve locations along the eastern X1 corridor, including the X2, X21 and X22 from Norwich to Lowestoft via Gillingham, Beccles, Worlingham, Carlton Colville, North Cove, and Whitton; and the X11 from Norwich to Belton via Acle, Great Yarmouth, Gorleston-on-Sea and the James Paget University Hospital.

Unbranded routes

Spare buses are painted in a generic Network Norwich livery with a plain lilac front, and are used on unbranded routes, as well as to provide additional capacity on core services.

Several additional routes are operated by Network Norwich without branding applied, usually as they are infrequent services. Service 30 operates between Norwich city centre, Taverham and Thorpe Marriott, serving the Dixons Centre, Hellesdon Hospital, Sweet Briar Retail Park and Taverham High School.

Vehicle 60916, one of two Eastern Counties retro-liveried vehicles in the fleet, crossing the bridge in Wroxham, March 2018.

As of March 2018, Network Norwich had two vehicles painted in retro liveries based on those of the former Eastern Counties bus company, from which Network Norwich (and, by extension, First Norfolk & Suffolk) can trace their history. Both vehicles were Volvo B7L single-deckers with Wright Eclipse Metro bodywork, built in 2002 and originally delivered new to First York and most recently in service with First South Yorkshire before being transferred to Norwich to be repainted into their retro liveries, these have since been scrapped. Recently, a third vehicle has been repainted in a heritage livery. A Volvo B7RLE with Wright Eclipse Urban bodywork, numbered 66985, received the same livery as 60916. In September 2020, another vehicle was transferred to Norwich in a heritage livery from its time in Sheffield,it wears the colours for the Mainline operator.
