Getting to Leeds for UKREiiF is still quick and easy – but if you’re travelling from Huddersfield or Dewsbury, please be aware that essential rail improvement works mean replacement bus services and amended timetables will be in place throughout the week. Journeys may take longer than usual, so we recommend planning ahead and allowing extra time to arrive comfortably and enjoy the event.
Rail replacement buses will continue to provide reliable connections between Huddersfield, Dewsbury and Leeds, and services may run via alternative routes. Before you travel, please check the latest information on National Rail Enquiries or your train operator’s website.
