Residents have raised concerns about the loss of a Coastliner bus service to Scarborough’s Alpamare water park.
Scarborough residents have called on Transdev, the company that runs the Coastliner 843 bus, to reinstate its bus service up to the Alpamare water park. Locals criticised the company for “taking advantage of the Alpamare water park being closed to terminate the bus route in Peasholm Park and not come up the hill to Burniston Road”. The cuts to the service are understood to have taken place this week and the company’s timetable no longer shows Burniston Road as a stop.
Commenting on the loss of the bus service, residents said that whilst “it may seem a very small matter that Coastliner 843 will terminate by Peasholm Park, it has quite a few consequences”. Locals said that despite the closure of the leisure centre, the bus provided “an all year round, direct service into town, to the shops, to connect with buses to the hospital, and the railway station”. It was noted that guests staying at Premier Inn’s North Bay hotel could also be impacted.
