Bus Timetables

For some time, with the support of Councillor John Galvin, I have been pressing for improvement to Bishopthorpe bus stops. New stop signs were erected but until now the timetable cases on most stops remained blank.

I am grateful to First York, who have now put timetables for the No.11 service into the cases.

Several stops still need C1 timetables, but Harrogate Travel may be reluctant to do anything until they know whether this useful but subsidised service is to continue beyond April. 

We have at last received Questionnaire copies (see Martin's earlier entry about this) and have the opportunity to press the City Council for subsidised services to continue. 

As well as all C1 journeys, Evening and Sunday buses on the No.11 service depend on City Council subsidy.

Martin:
Well done to our tireless nay implacable champions of public (well not fully public any more)transport for their efforts. Now what we need is the bus stop in Main Street (Post Office) moved to the infrequently used school laybay and a shelter erected there!
Cllr. John Galvin:
It is possible that the Council may cut bus subsidies in it's attempt to save money!! a step I would oppose.
