East Yorkshire are back to normal for their journeys on the 350 from Sunday - Sundays are showing as the 'old' timetable not the 'new' timetable that was due to be introduced in April. Nothing from Stagecoach yet.
Thanks very much for that. Good to see EYMS back in the fold. I would expect a revised timetable from Stagecoach, so I will hold off posting any summaries until such a time that that comes.
Apologies for the delay in me posting this.
Firstly, just to point out, especially as the non essential retail opens tomorrow, all public transport remains essential travel only. Travel to non essential retail is not essential, although clearly is if you work there and have no other means of transport.
Also, as of Monday 15th June 2020, use of face coverings becomes compulsory on public transport.
Rail services remain as per the previous update. It is expected that the next revision will come on 6th July.
Local Stagecoach buses within Scunthorpe, Grimsby and Hull are revised on Sunday 14th June. For details of these, please see:

The Hornsby Travel service 254 Barton Town bus remains suspended.
The Stagecoach 260 Barton Villager is operating a temporary timetable, although this looks very similar to the normal timetable.
The Stagecoach service 250 Humber Flyer is now up to hourly, with the 255 to Wren Kitchens also running. Note that the short workings to Kirmington Airedrome are not currently running. Additional 350 Humber Fast Cat services are available Barton - Hull. Timetable:
Once again, some journeys on the 350 Humber Fast Cat are operated by EYMS.

Details for the 6th July service rail service enhancements are now coming through.
Northern are as you were with the six return Barton Line trips Mondays - Saturdays and no Sunday Barton Line or Saturday Brigg Line services. There are enhancements elsewhere on their network.
The South TPE service will be predominantly 2 hourly but with full service in the peaks. Most services will still terminate at Manchester Piccadilly, where there are connections for the Airport. The overnight services will not run.
EMR details are stil awaited.
Bus timetables remain the same, although note that North East Lincolnshire concessionary passes have now gained their morning peak restrictions, hence can't be used Mondays - Fridays prior to 09:30.
Just a reminder that in line with the The Health Protection (Coronavirus, Wearing of Face Coverings on Public Transport) (England) Regulations 2020, face coverings (not necessarily masks) must be worn when on public transport unless a passenger has a reasonable excuse, such as:
Being unable put on, wear or remove a face covering because of any physical or mental illness or impairment, or disability (within the meaning of section 6 of the Equality Act 2010(1)), or without severe distress;
Travelling with, or providing assistance to, another person who relies on lip reading to communicate;
Travelling to avoid injury, or to escape a risk of harm, and does not have a face covering with them;
It is reasonably necessary to eat or drink, you remove your face covering to eat or drink (particularly relevant in this hot weather I feel);
You have to remove their face covering to take medication;
A relevant person requests that P remove their face covering.
Also a reminder that in line with the Prime Minister's statement on Tuesday, people should avoid public transport where possible.
Apologies for a lack of updates on this recently.

Note that the Saturday service is expected to run for the last time on Saturday 5th September 2020 and will be replaced by the East Yorkshire Motor Services JustGo North Lincs demand responsive service. The weekday service is expected to continue as at present.
The 450 Immingham - Barton - Brigg service is running to a temporary timetable, although is currently expected to cease running in late August.
Please remember to maintain physical distancing wherever possible on public transport. It remains compulsory to wear a face covering unless medically exempt.
450 to cease it's temporary timetable (though I think it's the normal Saturday/School Holiday timetable) or to cease alltogether?
I understand the 450 will cease altogether on Friday 29th August.
I agree what Stagecoach have branded as the temporary timetable is the usual school holiday timetable.
There have been further changes to omnibus services from Sunday 30th August 2020.
Service 250 is rerouted and no longer serves Great Limber or Humberside Airport. From Keelby, the service will run via Ulceby, Thornton Curtis and Barrow, regaining its current route in Barton after serving the Interchange followed by the Market Place. Some 250 journeys now detour to serve Wren Kitchens
There is now a late evening service 255 6 days a week, leaving Hull at 23:30, returning from Wren Kitchens at 00:20.
Timetable:
Hornsby Travel Barton Town service 254 continues to operate on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
https://hornsbytravel.co.uk/timetables/Hornsbys_Service_254_2020.pdf
Stagecoach Barton Villager weekday service 260 continues to operate.
Note that the fixed timetable Call Connect service 260 will cease with the last run being on Saturday 5th September, with Saturday passengers advised to use the new EYMS JustGo service. Alternatively, go by train.

Jointly operated Humber Flyer service 350 continues to operate. Note that the late evening services still do not run, though the 23:30 250 from Hull does now provide an alternative.
Under the COVID distancing guidelines, college day service 360 is now for the use of the college students only.
There are also ammendments to the bus services in Grimsby, Hull and Scunthorpe, with many early morning and late evening services reintroduced and daytime frequencies increased back towards their normal levels. See https://www.stagecoachbus.com/promos-and-offers/east-midlands/coronavirus-temp-services for details.
On the rails, the current Barton Line temporary service is in place until Sunday 13th September, with the full service to restart on Monday 14th September. Brigg Line Saturday services will resume from Saturday 19th September.
Transpennine Express will continue with the current temporary timetable.
East Midlands Railway will have an increased temporary timtable from Monday 14th September, featuring the reintroduction of the full Grimsby / Cleethorpes service, although there are still some reductions elsewhere on their network.
I am very sorry to report that the service uplift planned to take effect on the Barton Line from Monday 14th September 2020 will now not take place. Below is the explanation from Northern's train planning department:
"I should also mention with the Barton TT, the services listed below have been taken out as TPE do not have the traincrew to resource them. There is however an additional bus in each direction at end of day – you will see on the TT"
The taken out services are the 06:59, 14:55 and on Mondays - Thursdays the 21:04 from Cleethorpes and the 07:50, 15:50 and on Mondays - Thursdays the 22:02 from Barton.
The additional bus is the 21:04 from Cleethorpes and the 22:02 from Barton Mondays - Thursdays. This continues to run as a train on Fridays and Saturdays.
In more posivie news, the Brigg line will resume its Saturday only service from Saturday 19th September 2020. See the Brigg Line Group's attached promotional poster for details.
The link for the continued revised Barton Line timetable is below:
Note that some of the connecting Barton - Hull times in the timetable are incorrect. Northern are aware of the issue so hopefully they will be corrected soon. In the meantime, please check the bus times on the Stagecoach website:
https://www.stagecoachbus.com/promos-and-offers/east-midlands/hull-services
Note that the Stagecoach 250/255 and 350 timetables have now been reissued with the handy Barton - Hull summary section reintroduced.
250/255:
https://www.stagecoachbus.com/timetable-pdf?ServiceId=XGAO250.O
350:
https://www.stagecoachbus.com/timetable-pdf?ServiceId=XGBO350.O
There are also extra 255 journeys, and changes to the times of some existing 255 journeys. If you want a bus from Barton to Hull at 0355, there is now one Monday to Thursday!
Good spot. If I lived in Barton, I would probably use that early morning 255 occasionally. Also a Sunday 255 in there.
