Reporting damage

If you discover a bus stop which is in need of maintenance, please contact City of York Council on (01904) 551551 or report it online.

Boarding the bus

When the bus you want approaches your stop, always indicate clearly to the driver, by a hand signal, that you need it to stop for you. This applies to all bus stops in York, including those in the city centre.

Leaving the bus

If you wish to get off at the next stop, press the nearest 'Stop' button once to alert the driver. A bell or buzzer will sound and the 'Bus Stopping' sign at the front of the bus will illuminate to advise other passengers. Press the button well in advance so the driver has enough time to stop the bus safely.

Bus shelter dismantling and replacement

Following confirmation of a change of bus shelter supplier, from JCDecaux UK Ltd to Bauer Outdoor Media (also known as Clear Channel UK), City of York Council are working closely with JCDecaux UK to test the process to dismantle shelters, whilst minimising disruption to residents and the transport network.

A decision was made to remove a small number of bus shelters in advance of the full changeover that’s being planned to start later in the year. This was so all parties could understand the arrangements needed to remove bus shelters, with everything from highways permits, electrical connections and foundations being explored.

The following 6 shelters are affected; buses will operate and stop in the same places as usual.

For the 6 shelters that have been removed, over the coming weeks JCDecaux is arranging for the existing foundations and electrical connections to be removed. After this has happened the new shelters will be installed by Bauer. We anticipate this will be completed by mid-October 2025.

The new shelters will bring added benefits for bus travellers including improved seating, designated space for wheelchairs where possible, and green roofs on around 30 shelters.
