Check first

Before you rely on this route

  • Weekdays only

    SSL publishes route 401 as Monday to Friday. At weekends, route 400 is the service to check.

  • Skips Oyrarbakki

    The express does not call at Oyrarbakki, so it is not the bus to take if you are connecting to Gjógv, Eiði or Tjørnuvík.
