3. Otto is starting up a new bus company in Norfolk.
The only problem is, he left school at 14 without any qualifications and can’t work out how to set up a timetable.

4. Otto has worked out how Norfolk wants the busses to run
Otto has worked out how Norfolk wants the busses to run. He has given you this sheet telling you all of the rules about his bus routes.

5. You will be getting the map of Norfolk you used for the Easter Egg Hunt 2 years ago to help plan your timetable.
