You can now track the progress of your buses live, with YourNextBus
This is being driven by West Yorkshire Metro, so is mainly aimed at buses in Leeds and Bradford. At the moment, real-time information is only available for Coastliner, First Leeds and Keighley & District buses in North Yorkshire, and some Harrogate & District and First York services. The system will also give you the scheduled departure time of all other bus services, but these will not be updated in the event of delays or disrupton
You can access this service on the internet, using the links below, or on your mobile phone. Text the 8-digit number of your bus stop to 63876 (spells 'Metro'), and you will get a text back with the next departures from your stop. This costs 12p plus your standard network charge
If your reply gives a clock time, eg 402 SELBY 11:25, this is a scheduled time and there is no live information
If your reply gives a time in minutes, eg 66 SKIPTON 12mins, this is a live estimate of how long it will be before the bus arrives.
