Hide AdCreated in partnership with local police and NHS servies, it aims to create a safe place for those who may be too intoxicated to travel home or feel unsafe for other reasons.
It will be deployed on these dates due to high volumes of people typically drinking in the city centre on the weekends ahead of Christmas.
It will mark the fifth and sixth time the bus has operated this year, having previously been seen on warm evenings and bank holidays.
