Update: Bus Service Changes

Due to bus driver shortages, Arriva Yorkshire will be reducing its network from the 25/10/21 to allow it time to recruit and train new drivers. Although only a small number of these services directly impact Hunslet and Riverside ward residents - they may impact their connecting journeys to elsewhere.

Additional journeys are introduced to partly replace service 104 between Wakefield and Eastmoor.

This service is withdrawn and partly replaced by service 101 between Potovens and Stanley, and service 118 between Wakefield and Junction 41 Industrial Estate.

Most journeys on service 106 will serve Hall Green.
