AN additional bus service from Haxby to York has been welcomed.
Following a petition and Liberal Democrat campaign in Haxby, First have introduced an extra morning journey on the Number 13 service from Haxby to the city centre.
The new service, which started this week, will leave Haxby West Nooks at 8.25am, reaching Stonebow just before 9am and the station at 9.09am.
Coun Ian Cuthbertson said: “I am pleased that First have responded to our campaign by adding this new morning service.
“First seems to be realising that the service on this route is not giving residents a fair deal on public transport.
“I hope people will make good use of this new service and I will continue to work with residents to improve transport links to and from Haxby.”
