Unusually looks like hardly any changes in the metro service change date window for Dec ?

The December one is always very thin on the ground and is mainly there to coincide with the rail timetable change. Nobody wants to change services 2nd week of December.

They did seem to have given up on the 400, with the current timetable having just one bus looping round between Halifax and Elland - along routes with high frequencies from First and assorted other buses - around 13 buses an hour.

Metro have posted on their website that the 400 cancellation will be the only change in December.

Seems to be most journeys running 10 minutes later Monday to Friday (So Saturday buses are not at the same times any more) and Sunday buses are 20 minutes earlier. Disappointing that Metro don't have anything about this (and still have the old timetable up).
