Plan your Christmas and New Year journeys in South Yorkshire

  • No bus tram or train services on Christmas Day and limited services on Boxing Day and New Year’s Day

Bus, tram and train passengers in South Yorkshire are being reminded to check before they travel this Christmas and New Year.

During the festive period, services will run to amended timetables; and in some cases, the last departures will be earlier than usual.

There will be no bus, tram or train services on Christmas Day, and limited bus and tram services on Boxing Day and New Year’s Day.

Bus operators will run a ‘Saturday plus’ service on 23 and 24 December and 2 and 3 January to support people getting to and from work. This means extra early morning trips on top of the usual Saturday service.
A summary of services can be found at travelsouthyorkshire.com/christmas.

Sheffield City Council is also offering a free TravelMaster CityWide Sheffield 1 Day travel ticket, worth £6.30 in December, to help people get around the city in the run up to Christmas.

The offer, which is limited to one ticket per person, is available through the BetterPoints Sheffield app. Further information about the offer and how to redeem a free ticket can be found at sheffield.betterpoints.uk.
 
Travel time restrictions will be removed for Senior Concessionary Pass holders from Friday 27 December to Tuesday 31 December 2024. This means anyone holding a pass can use it all day on buses, trams and trains within South Yorkshire between those dates.

Train operators will run a reduced service during the Christmas and New Year period. Further information including timetables can be found at nationalrail.co.uk/travel-information/christmas.

From Tuesday 24 until Tuesday 31 December, our customer contact centre, Traveline, will be open from 8am until 6pm. It will be closed on Christmas Day, Boxing Day, and New Year’s Day.

Opening hours for interchanges, mini-interchanges and Park & Ride sites can also be found at travelsouthyorkshire.com/christmas
