The Springs Leeds: Arriva bus service to city centre with Cross Gates and Garforth stops returns 'every 15 minutes'

Arriva’s 165 and 164 bus services will resume running through shopping and leisure attraction The Springs and Thorpe Park from this coming Sunday, July 23. The two locations are situated just off of junction 46 of the M1 to the north of the city.

Funded by Thorpe Park Developments Ltd, the services will provide a 15 minute frequency of services throughout the day, Monday to Saturday, with a slightly reduced frequency in the evenings, as well as on Sundays.

The bus services will provide connections to nearby destinations including Cross Gates, Garforth, Sherburn, Selby, Kippax and Leeds City Centre. Arriva is offering a special family ticket price and £2 flat fares for all passengers.

Adam Varley from Scarborough Group International, a partner of Thorpe Park Developments Ltd, said: “We’re delighted that we’ve been able to reintroduce the bus services through Thorpe Park Leeds and The Springs.

"With over 6,500 people working on the site, and thousands of visitors each week to The Springs, there is a strong demand for sustainable public transport connections which, as the park reaches its next phase of maturity and as we add further workspace and amenities, the demand will further intensify.”

A public summer fun day is scheduled to take place on Saturday, August 11, at The Springs to promote the bus service with Arriva, further details of which are yet to be announced
