I wonder what is the shortest bus route in West Yorkshire. I know 111 is very short, but is it the shortest or are there any other shorter bus routes?

Connexions' 964 Otley - Cambridge Drive Circular would be my shout: 10 mins to do a full circle.

Certainly used to be the K8 from Keighley bus station to Keighley Asda (3 stops including first and last). I still can't believe that it actually ever existed! Especially as the 662 (and 760 at the time on its old route) dropped you next to the side entrance and the K8 dropped you at the end of the car park. Though last time I visited, the side entrance wasn't open. |

Though last time I visited, the side entrance wasn't open. The pedestrian entrance closes in an evening, though there's no publicity about when (but, generally, not when the K8 was operating). They've now stopped having baskets and trolleys at the bottom of the steps, so to get one you've got to walk the length of the store (and then outside for a trolley). Seems designed to be very pedestrian/public transport-unfriendly. The 60 drops you closer to the side entrance than the K8 did to the main entrance . |

I believe South Pennine Community Transport's 936 in Marsden is a very strong contender if not the shortest - a mere 4 minutes end to end!

T2 Todmorden - Longfield 0.6 miles 5 mins each way. 4 mins at night/Sunday I think it only exists because of how steep the hill is to get there. If it was a flat bus route I doubt anyone would need it as it would probably be a ten minute walk to town. |
