New Briggate No More...

Sunday 21/02/21 saw Leeds City Council close the section of road outside the Grand Theatre.


New Briggate has been shut as part of the dubious "improvement" scheme around Leeds ...

All associated bus stops are now closed and the bus services are re-routed via Vicar Lane which has become two-way for the first time in many years, having been a one way street near the red bus station as long as many of us can remember ...

This means the sight of buses stopping outside the Grand Theatre is no more, the last chance to ride a Black Prince bus along this section would have been during our Wetherby running day in the summer.

Black Prince buses had used these bus stops many many times over the years, notably of course whilst operating the Wetherby service 760/770 ...

I wondered if anyone had photographs of our buses spotted on this section of road, it would be great to see these now historical images! Please get in touch via the contact link if you can help :-)
