New Summer Bus Service
Buses to Upper
Nidderdale on Tuesdays and Saturdays
A new Summer bus service in Upper Nidderdale starts on
Saturday 24th July. The
Upper Nidderdale
Rambler service links Pateley Bridge with Lofthouse, Studfold
Trails, How Stean Gorge, Middlesmoor and continues up to Scar House
Reservoir. It runs every Saturday and Tuesday until 31st August,
complementing the existing Sunday and Bank Holiday
Monday
Nidderdale
Rambler service.
Buses will connect with service 24 from Harrogate at Pateley
Bridge, and depart King Street at 10.30, 12.30 and 15.30. Buses
back down the Dale to Pateley Bridge will connect with the 24 to
Harrogate. The 11.50 departure from Middlesmoor gives Upper
Nidderdale residents the opportunity to spend the afternoon
visiting friends in Pateley Bridge ideal for teenagers to meet up
with school friends without the need for "Mum's Taxi".
The buses will be operated by local company AS Coaches of Fellbeck.
The services are managed by the Dales & Bowland Community
Interest Company, with funding from Nidderdale AONB's Sustainable
Development Fund.
Concessionary passes are valid for free travel with a £4
Day Return fare available (reduced to just £2.50 for holders
of Transdev service 24 tickets).
