Hull Park and Ride Returns for Holidays

Translink is enhancing bus services from the Sprucefield park and ride to Belfast, increasing frequency to every 15 minutes during peak times starting November 25, aiming to encourage public transport use for Christmas shopping. Similarly, Hull City Council and Stagecoach East Midlands are reintroducing a festive park and ride scheme from November 21 to December 22, featuring additional services on Thursday nights and Sundays with discounted return fares. Shoppers can park for free at the Priory Park & Ride site in Hull, promoting a sustainable travel option during the holiday season. Both initiatives are part of efforts to alleviate traffic congestion and provide convenient transport alternatives for holiday shoppers. Local officials express optimism about the schemes' potential to boost the economy and improve customer experiences during the busy festive period.
