Changes to services in Yorkshire
From 23rd and 25th July 2022
We are making some changes to our bus timetables across Yorkshire from 23rd and 25th July.
We have some good news to share as we make improvements to a number of bus services across the county. Many changes revert the recent temporary timetables back to the previous service level.
Key features of these changes include:
- Saturday frequencies are reinstated across most services.
- Weekday journeys on services 195 and 496 which were suspended in April 2022 are reinstated.
- We’ve tweaked some timetables to make journeys more punctual.
- We’ll run additional Sunday evening journeys on routes 102, 105 and 425.
- Some of our contracts expire at this service change. Due to the ongoing driver shortage we have not been able to bid to continue running some of these contracted journeys. In most instances, this means that some routes will be run by different operators from 25th July.
If you know a friend or relative who would like to drive their career forward with Arriva Yorkshire, do please let them know we’re recruiting. We welcome applicants via arrivabusjobs.co.uk
