Under 11’s can also take advantage of this offer if they are accompanied by a full fare-paying adult.

Louise Finch, from Carleton Community High School, said "The pupils had a fantastic morning helping Arriva spell out their offer. The summer holidays are long and often expensive for families and it should really help our pupils get out and about. "Nigel Featham, managing director for Arriva Yorkshire, said: “This year we’re investing over £12m in new vehicles for Yorkshire, we’re really proud to be able to offer our customers a newer, improved level of service. We hope young people in the area take advantage of the special summer fare and have some great days out”
The £1 ticket will be available from Monday 23rd July 2012 to Sunday 2nd September 2012. This ticket is only valid on the 135/136 service.
The 135/136 services operated all day, every day connecting Casteford,Xscape, J32 Outlet, Pontefract and Chequerfield.
