Service changes are now live!

7 months ago Mon 19th Jan 2026

What’s improving from 15 February 2026

These changes include:

  • More reliable timetables across North Yorkshire, Hull, East Riding and York
  • An improved Service 4, extended to serve Scalby Mills and the Sea Life Centre
  • Improved links from Ravenscar, Burniston and Cloughton, with Service 9X providing connections to Scarborough Hospital and Proudfoot Superstore
  • More convenient links to the North Bay seafront, with most Coaster 12 extended via North Marine Road and Peasholme Gap (making it easier to reach Peasholm Park and Improved routing via Bempton Lane on evenings and Sundays.

North Riding – bringing services together under one umbrella

Over the coming months, we’ll be bringing all of our North Yorkshire and York bus services together under one umbrella: North Riding.

This will also include our Procters “Dales & District” services. Customer research has shown that having several different service brands across the area can be confusing, so this change will make it clearer and easier to recognise our services. This will complement our existing North Riding services and will make it easier to navigate and understand the network, including the key destinations served across the region.

As part of this update, we’ll soon be introducing new network maps and updated timetable publicity. You’ll also start to see the North Riding name appearing on buses and across our customer information.

All North Riding services, including the Procters network, will also soon be shown together across our website, online timetables, and journey planning information, making it easier to find the right service in one place.
