I've used service 781 recently a few times and it does seem to serve a purpose, however it only seems to pick up a small number of regular passengers between Meanwood, and Alwoodley, with only odds and sods picked up beyond. This is likely to be because of running 20 mins behind a 923, however re-timing wouldn't really work as that would mean less time in Otley. A soloution could be to re-route from Harrogate Road/Ring Road at Moortown up to Alwoodley Gates, Alwoodley Avenue and Lane then back down the Ring Road, then running via Old Otley Road to Holt Park, calling in there as an enhancement to the 940, and then going over to East Chevin Road down to Otley. Probably wouldn't take much longer than it's current route and may gain custom up Old Otley Road.
