Yorkshire Coast bus operator Coastliner is to run more buses from this weekend, to ensure everyone can continue to travel safely.
The bus firm’s move comes as young people prepare to return to school five months on from the start of lockdown restrictions.
The operator also says increasing number of customers are also returning to its services for work and leisure trips now that travel restrictions have eased, with added reassurance from its unique “Clean, Safe and Ready to Go” customer promise to provide the highest standards of cleanliness and safety on all of its buses.
Coastliner General Manager Ben Mansfield said:
“With increased and thorough cleaning of each bus, clear safety guidance on board and a warm welcome from our amazing team, the time is right to welcome more of our customers back to the bus.
“Recognising that working patterns for many have changed, we’re now offering flexible ticket bundles as part-time home working has risen in popularity. All of these are available instantly on our Transdev Go mobile app, which also tracks every service throughout its route and shows our customers how much capacity there is on every bus at any point in the journey.
“We’re ready to help people travelling back to work, back to the shops, back to leisure and back to education, while also reducing traffic congestion and air pollution in our local towns and cities. It’s time to come back to the bus.”
From this Sunday, 6 September 2020, the following changes will be introduced:
- Coastliner 840, 843: Leeds, York and Malton to Pickering, Whitby and Scarborough – a new Monday to Saturday timetable is introduced, with buses every 30 minutes between Leeds, York and Malton, with a bus every hour to and from Scarborough. Connecting buses at Malton will serve Flamingo Land, Pickering and Thornton-le-Dale, and Whitby. On Sundays, an hourly service will run between Leeds and Scarborough, with connecting buses at Malton serving Flamingo Land, Pickering, Thornton-le-Dale and Whitby
Full details of all services operated by Coastliner, including timetables and travel advice, are available online at: https://www.transdevbus.co.uk/coastliner and on the free to download Transdev Go mobile app. Customers can also see at a glance how busy their bus is before travelling using the website or app.
