Update from West Yorkshire Combined Authority.

Summarised below are a number of bus service changes in the Wakefield area which will be introduced between 23rd and 25th July 2022.

Arriva Yorkshire Saturday services that were temporarily withdrawn or reduced in April due to driver shortages will be restored as part of these changes.

Unfortunately, the driver shortage is still impacting services, and a small number of evening journeys will be temporarily suspended until we are able to find an operator with capacity to run them.

112 Ossett • Gawthorpe • Batley
Sun 24 July 2022
Operated by Station Coaches
This new service operated by Station Coaches will replace the Ossett to Batley section of service 122, operating broadly hourly Monday to Saturday. This will restore the Saturday service on this route (which was temporarily withdrawn by Arriva at the end of April due to a shortage of drivers).

120 120A Wakefield • Horbury • Ossett • Healey
Sun 24 July 2022
Operated by Arriva / Globe Holidays
This service will now be operated by Globe Holidays to a slightly revised timetable. All journeys will be retimed 5 minutes earlier. The Saturday service (which was temporarily withdrawn by Arriva at the end of April due to a shortage of drivers) will be reinstated.

122 Wakefield • Lupset • Ossett
Mon 25 July 2022
Operated by Arriva
This service will now terminate in Ossett. The Ossett to Batley section will be operated by Station Coaches as new service 112. The Saturday service frequency (which was temporarily reduced at the end of April due to a shortage of drivers) will be increased to every 15 minutes from Wakefield to Lupset, and half-hourly from Lupset to Ossett.

126 127 Wakefield • Lupset • Horbury • Ossett • Chickenley • Dewsbury
Sat 23 July 2022
Operated by Arriva
On Saturdays, the combined frequency (which was temporarily reduced at the end of April due to a shortage of drivers) will be increased from half-hourly to every 15 minutes, half-hourly on each service.
