PASSENGERS have been warned to check changes to some bus routes in York which come into force on April 15.

New timetables for routes 9, 10, 11, 12 and 59 have been announced. These include lines to Monks Cross Park and Ride and Poppleton Bar Park and Ride.

First York, which runs the city’s buses, says the changes have been made to reflect traffic flow across the district.

Some journeys have also been scheduled earlier to run in time with train services or to avoid clashes with school buses.
