First Bus York timetables

[Bayum]

Does anyone have any idea what timetable the 4 is from Acomb towards York? The website only gives me York - Acomb. I can see it’s half hourly intervals, but I’m not sure what the starting time is.

That used to be my local route.

When you refer to the starting time, aAre you asking what time the first bus departs on weekdays? Is this for now, or for future travel (say from September)?

It's normally a frequent service. It's currently using Park & Ride vehicles. But you wouldn't actually use it from Acomb to York of course, but presumably it's an intermediate journey you are making.

Ideally looking for times it leaves Tedder Road heading in to York. The current timetable doesn’t show me Acomb to York, just the reverse. If I knew they started service at say 0620, I could assume that the next buses would be at 0650 and 0720 etc., preferably allowing me to catch the latter to York for my train at 0830.

Far easier to use the bustimes site these days for most timetables. It’s such a simple interface to use and usually up to date fir changes.

4 - York Clifford Street - Acomb

From the top of Tedder Road, it's only a 10 minute walk to Ridgeway for the more direct Number 1. Overall that probably isn't quicker by the time you've done the walk but it's an option to be aware of.

Google suggests there is a bus due from the Askham Lane stop (at the top of Tedder Road) at 0751 which gets to the rail station at 0811; this is consistent with the entry in the link provided above by @darloscott which shows timing points Foxwood Shops 0754 and Cliffords Tower 0815.

That would give you loads of time for the connection; indeed the bus after that should make it in time for your connction too.

And if there's any issues with the number 4 route, or if you fancy a walk, there appears to be a number 1 bus from Ridgeway at 0805 which arrives into the station at 0818.

(Of course if you're going from the bottom of Tedder Road, you'd be using the Foxwood Shops or Huntsman's Walk stops)

Thanks. Think I managed to get a bus at 0717. Was in York with five minutes to spare waiting to watch the 0744 Bristol train leave.
Thank you, @darloscott , I didn’t know about that site. I’ll have to keep it in mind. The First bus sites for Leeds and York are absolute s**te.
