On-demand bus service launches around Ripon
North Yorkshire County Council has launched its pilot on-demand bus service called YorBus, allowing travellers to book public transport at times to suit them.
People who live in Ripon, Masham, Bedale and the surrounding villages can use the YorBus app to chose a pick-up and drop-off bus stop and travel within the service area at their leisure.
There is a flat fare: adults will pay £1.20 and children aged five to 17 will pay 65p. Those under five travel for free.

Those living in the blue area can access YorBus to travel around it
The service will run from 6.55am to 6pm during the week and 9am to 6pm at weekends. There is no service on bank holidays.
The app allows the customers to keep track of the bus’s location and gauge how long it will take to arrive.

Customers can download the YorBus mobile phone app from the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store. Those who do not have a smart phone can book their public transport over the phone on 01609 780780.
The council has assured those who struggle with mobility that the service will be fully accessible with low floor and ramp access.
This service is going to be regularly reviewed and, if successful, will inform its decision for a wider rollout within the country.

Funding for Harrogate’s controversial Station Gateway scheme has been increased from £7.9m to over £10.9m.
The gateway project aims to create a more attractive entrance to the town around Station Parade and James Street and give greater priority for pedestrians and cyclists.
The West Yorkshire Combined Authority, which bid for the initial funding from the UK government, has now allocated an additional £2.6m to the scheme. It will come from the Department for Transport’s Transforming Cities Fund.
A West Yorkshire Combined Authority report said the overall delivery costs of the project have not increased but the extra money was needed for “risk and contingency”.
An additional £300,000 will be match-funded by local councils, taking the total cost of the project to £10.9m.
West Yorkshire Combined Authority has now agreed to proceed with the scheme towards drawing up a full business case.
The UK government has set a deadline of March 2023 for all schemes that received funds from the Transforming Cities Fund to be built.

The Harrogate gateway scheme is being done in partnership with Harrogate Borough Council and North Yorkshire County Council.
Similar projects are planned in Selby and Skipton but the Harrogate scheme has proved the most contentious.
Some businesses are worried about the impact on trade but many Harrogate residents and environmental groups have welcomed it.
Councillor Phil Ireland, Harrogate Borough Council’s cabinet member for carbon reduction and sustainability, has said the initiative “has the potential to create many more walking and cycling opportunities while transforming the look and feel of the station gateway area in Harrogate”.
