The 36 bus will run more frequently as part of the changes.

The number 36 bus between Leeds and Ripon via Harrogate is to run every 10 minutes again from next month, the Harrogate Bus Company has confirmed. 

The service had been running less frequently due to the four-week closure of the Grade II* listed Harewood Bridge for essential maintenance works, which are due to end on Thursday, August 24. 

The timetable change is one of several announced by the bus company, all of which will come into force on Sunday, September 3. 

The schedule for the number 1 bus between Harrogate and Knaresborough will be changed slightly to improve reliability, although the frequency will remain the same. 

On the number 2 service between Harrogate and Bilton, there will be minor changes to departure times from Knox into Harrogate. 

Some afternoon departures on the number 8 bus between Harrogate, Knaresborough and Wetherby will have new times. The 4.21pm from Knaresborough to Wetherby will run at 4.41pm, the 4.55pm from Wetherby will run at 5.15pm and the 6pm from Harrogate will run at 6.15pm. There are no changes to Saturday the service. 

There will also be some changes to the 620H (Dacre to Rosset School), 720H (West Tanfield to Ripon schools), S2 (Bilton to Rosset School), S3 (Penny Pot to Rosset School), S6 (Bilton to Rosset School), S8 (Woodlands to Harrogate) & S36 (Ripon to St John Fisher) buses to ensure the services run reliably and meet the school starting and finishing times. 

New timetables will be available to download soon from the Harrogate Bus Company website.
