From Monday 1st September, East Yorkshire Buses operated tendered service 1 between Holme on Spalding Moor and Selby was extended to start back in Pocklington, also additionally serving Hayton, Shiptonthorpe and Market Weighton. The 1 operates one journey each way Monday and Friday, effectively providing a Selby shoppers service, with a 1030 arrival at and 1300 departure from the North Yorkshire town.
Presumably, at least during school holidays, the vehicle and driver previously had to run 'dead' from Pocklington to Holme, so the cost involved here may well be marginal - but in return, Pocklington, Hayton, Shiptonthorpe and Market Weighton gain a Selby shopping link, and the 1 hopefully gets some extra passengers to improve it's finances.
