Bradford Bus Move: Changes to Bradford City Centre Bus Routes from 14 April 2024 - see Service Updates for affected services
Bradford City Circle - services 601 and 602 to be introduced from 19 May 2024!
TLC are delighted to be operating the 601 and 602 services on behalf of West Yorkshire Combined Authority and look forward to welcoming new and existing passengers on board.
The 601 and 602, also known as Bradford City Circle, will operate on Monday to Saturday, hourly in each direction from Shipley via Heaton, Bradford Royal Infirmary, Lidget Green, Morrisons Mayo Avenue, Holme Wood, Five Lane Ends Morrisons and Wrose back to Shipley.
This service will incorporate the current 629 with the route unchanged - On the existing 629 section, the route will be unchanged and the timetable will also be largely unchanged, with a small number of journeys retimed by around 5 minutes. Two additional journeys will operate via Tesco Great Horton Road.
Anticlockwise journeys will be numbered 601. Clockwise journeys will be numbered 602.
These enhancements are funded by the Combined Authority through the Bus Service Improvement Plan
TLC Services affected: 256, 263, 606, 630, 633, 634, 635, 643, 644, 653, 656, 660, 671, 675, 676, 680
As part of Bradford’s City Centre transformation, bus services will no longer travel directly through the heart of the city centre from 14 April 2024.
A new permanent public transport loop will run around the perimeter of the city centre avoiding previous delay hotspots, helping bus services to run more reliably across the whole district, making the bus a more convenient way to get about.
Further details about the TLC services affected are listed below.
We are advising customers to check before they travel to see if their services and stops are impacted and allow extra time for journeys.
