More trains and buses are taking people in the Harrogate district back to work as the government starts to ease the lockdown.

The government has told people to cycle or drive to work but for some, trains or buses are the only viable option.

Both the train and bus stations in Harrogate were relatively quiet this morning compared to the busy commuter days before the lockdown.

Public transport companies are now, however, introducing new timetables to get the country moving once again.

Northern has said its new timetable will see additional services on some routes, but overall capacity on trains will be significantly reduced.

Commuters have been urged to maintain social distancing where possible, wash hands before and after travel and, if possible, wear a face covering.

The train company will also continue to support social distancing and enhanced cleaning of touch points at stations and on trains.

The Harrogate Bus Company has not yet revealed details of a new timetable but has said that it will be putting more buses on the road.

It has launched a survey that will "help shape the future of bus travel to help them "get this right."
