Bus Stops in West Yorkshire

The Combined Authority manages the 14,000 of them in West Yorkshire. Here are more details about our bus stops.

Bus Stop Plate

The plate shows the bus stop name, the 450-stop number and destinations that buses stopping there are heading towards. Core Network bus stops also have the line and route numbers.

  

Bus Shelter

Most busy stops have a shelter to help keep customers protected from the elements. Often they have seats and lighting to help customers feel more secure. In West Yorkshire, they are mostly made of glass but there are some stone built ones.

Timetable at the stop

Most bus stops have a bus timetable in a case. This shows information about the bus services from that stop; destinations, route numbers, who operates the routes and the times that buses depart.

Please arrive at the stop a few minutes beforehand as the times shown are approximate.

Also, times maybe subject to change due to roadworks, diversions and Christmas/New Year's or Bank Holidays. WYCA accepts no responsibility for the inconvenience caused as a result of alterations.

Yournextbus

Around 2,200 bus stops in West Yorkshire have Real Time Information screens that show bus arrival information. These screens show customers the next few arrivals to that stop.

Usually the screen will show predictions that countdown in minutes to when the bus in due. The screens can also state if there are delays to bus services.

You can find real time information for all of West Yorkshire's stops via mobile, computer or other devices.

When the bus arrives  

Check the bus for its route number and destination to ensure its the right one. As your bus approaches the stop, please signal for it to stop by raising your arm, if you're able.

The bus may not stop unless you indicate to the driver that you wish to board.

Wait until the bus has stopped and the doors are fully opened before stepping on board. 

The bus stop plate on or near a shelter indicates to customers where they should wait for the bus. It's also a marker to show to the bus driver where the bus should stop.

  • Broken glass

Accessibility

Many bus stops in West Yorkshire have been upgraded with accessible kerbs which allow ease of access on to buses for wheelchairs and buggys. If you require a stop upgraded, please contact us.

Hail and Ride bus services 

Some bus routes have "Hail and Ride" sections as there are no fixed stops on the road served but the presence of the bus service benefits customers and residents.

You can signal to the driver that you wish to get on or press the stop button to get off at any safe point along the road.
