New late night bus service to be launched for Harrogate and Knaresborough passengers

Bus passengers on the main Harrogate/Knaresborough bus route are set to get a boost when travelling late at night.

Harrogate and Knaresborough MP Tom Gordon has revealed that Harrogate Bus Company is to extend its service so that the last bus back to Knaresborough will now be well beyond midnight.

With the last train from Harrogate to Knaresborough departing at 22.03, it's a boost not only for passengers but for the night-time economy.

Mr Gordon said: "Constituents told me the final Leeds train arrived with too little time to catch the last #1 bus to Knaresborough.
