First WY changes in Calderdale and Huddersfield now posted on their site. Confirmation of the withdrawal of the 183 with the 184 re-routed to cover the loss of service in Linthwaite and Hard End in Marsden. I think the 181/183/184/185/186 changes are timed to take place on the 16th April to coincide with other service changes in Greater Manchester. Also confirmation of the route change and reduced frequency for the 508, which will be re-routed to run direct via Stanningley Bypass (presumably a direct route into Leeds rather than via Farsley and Kirkstall. From 2nd April:508: New route via Stanningley Bypass. Revised timetable with new hourly frequency. 576: Revised timetable to improve punctuality. From 16th April:181: Timetable amendments. 183: Withdrawn 184: Minor route changes to access Linthwaite ,Marsden and Hard End, and timetable amendments. 185/186: Timetable amendments. www.firstbus.co.uk/halifax-calder-valley-huddersfield/news-and-service-updates/service-updates/service-changes-2nd

Awesome, that's me never using the 508 ever again. Word on the town is that the 9 is also withdrawn, but there is no official registration yet.

I’m sure that’s the exact routing people here have suggested for the 508 for years

In reality it's caused a massive pain for people in Farsley/ Intake/ Leeds & Bradford Road and Kirkstall, as well as areas towards Bradford and Halifax. Dozens of people on the Farsley Community Facebook group have described how it affects them personally, and our local councillor (Peter Carlill) is getting involved. This is also coupled with the withdrawal of the 9, which would have offered links to Rodley for people to get the 60.

However, if it was only hourly, I may not have been so keen.

I imagine when people suggested the 508 went via Stanningley Bypass, I’m assuming they expected a different service to be provided for the Farsley/Kirkstall route, which I presume isn’t happening?
To think that as well as the 508 there was also the 670 (35) along that routing at one time, and now only the 60 remains?

It's a bit before my time, but I believe that when the 508 used to run the old route (via Stanningley); another route existed covering Intake/ Farsley ect... This is now just a kick in the knackers for everyone in the area.

This is now just a kick in the knackers for everyone in the area. Yes there was the 15 Leeds to Bradford bus route which ran the same route as the current 508 between Stanningley and Dawsons Corner. The 15 service was reduced evenings and no Sundays and got compeltely axed in 2011. Far from its heyday when it used to run from Seacroft via Gipton App, York Rd to Bradford every 15 mins back in the late 1990s into the year 2000!

I Can sort of see the reasoning behind it,as it's only a couple of bus stops on Calverley Dr that are left without a bus service to the City Centre, with the other areas being covered by either 16 or 60 although it's a shame First have not been able to restore the 10 Min frequency on 16 to partly compensate Farsley. Even without Service 9,you could still do a 1 bus connection for Kirkstall (16/49 or 91 At Bramley instead of 9/60 At Rodley)

The M6 will be exactly the same as the Pendle Wizz to Colne and then just via the normal Mainline route onward to Burnley. Is that definite? Because at the moment, the M5 serves Earby every 30 minutes – and it looks like with the changes the M5 is going to be reduced to hourly alongside an hourly M6 – so that will either mean that Earby drops from half-hourly to hourly, or that the Skipton service will take ~10 minutes longer to get to Colne as it will divert to Earby (and ~30 minutes longer to reach Burnley). I hope I'm wrong and that the M5 will be retained every 30 minutes alongside the M6, but I think that's unlikely.

I Think the M5 is remaining Every 30 Mins,as it states the M3 is getting reduced to Every Hour so the 10 Min Frequency should be 1x M3,2x M4,2x M5 & 1x M6

The M5 will retain its route and frequency, and one of the M3 buses will instead run from Skipton as an M6.

You're probably thinking of the 759 Leeds–Farsley (The Gardens), which ran similarly to the 760 route — the replacement was 71, Primley Park –Leeds–Bradford

I am disappointed to see those cuts. That is a lot of parking spaces not being used. A lot of car parks have gone in the centre
Is there any chance of Arriva dropping into Stourton with bus routes they operate through that junction
What’s serving Logic Business Park on a Sunday?
