Bus service to North York Moors returns
Hull City CouncilA volunteer-led bus service has returned, offering public trips to the North York Moors this summer.
Funded by Hull City Council and East Riding of Yorkshire Council, the Moorsbus M1 service will run every Sunday and bank holiday from 4 May until 28 September.
The services are run by community interest company Moorsbus, with East Yorkshire Buses providing a double-decker for the M1 route.
Eden Blyth, director at the company, said it would allow people without cars to enjoy the North York Moors while promoting sustainable, environmentally-friendly travel.
Mr Blyth said he thought the service would be "very popular".
"It's good to think that everybody choosing to see them this way will help to keep the North York Moors National Park a beautiful, peaceful place as well as protecting this precious environment," he said.
The M1 return service will depart from Hull Paragon Interchange and will stop at Cottingham, Beverley, Driffield, and Malton Railway Station before arriving in Pickering.
Passengers can change to the M3 service, which stops at popular destinations including Kirkbymoorside and Hutton-le-Hole, before arriving at the Moors Centre in Danby.
Single and return fares vary but Moors Rover tickets cost £10 for adults and £3 for children.
