A seasonal bus service known as the Bronte Scenic Tour has returned to the Worth Valley.

The 812 resumed on Sunday and will run every Sunday and bank holiday until August 26.

The service has connected Keighley Bus Station to Haworth Railway Station, the Bronte Parsonage Museum and Stanbury for many years.

It has now been extended westwards past Ponden Reservoir to Scar Top Pine Ltd at Moor Lodge.

The service will connect with the new Keighley & Haworth Grand Heritage Tour bus at Haworth Railway Station on Sundays during August.

A timetable is available from Keighley Civic Centre, Keighley Bus Station, Keighley & Worth Valley Railway stations and Haworth Community Contact Points.

The 812 bus is sponsored by the Worth Valley Joint Transport Committee (JTC), with additional funds from Metro, Keighley Town Council’s watch and transport committee, Haworth Cross Roads and Stanbury Parish Council, Scar Top Pine Ltd, Oxenhope Parish Council and Worth Valley district councillors.

A JTC spokesman said: “The 812 bus has been called ‘the invisible service’ in Haworth because some residents seem unaware of it.

“Yet it is a busy little service, which performs an extremely valuable function for residents and visitors alike. Certainly, the town and parish councils see it as a valuable part of the local public transport network.”
