Dewsbury Bus Station

Work is underway on our £23 million transformation of Dewsbury Bus Station in partnership with Kirklees Council.

During the main phase of construction, the bus station building will be closed.  The bus station will remain fully operational with stands and temporary toilet facilities outside the building.  Visit our Metro website for the latest travel information.

The full building renovation will ensure Dewsbury is a fully accessible, modern bus station, with better real-time information displays to help with onward journeys, and improved safety and security features.

A “living roof” covered in plants, cycle parking and energy saving improvements, such as solar panels, are among the environmentally friendly features. 

Passengers will also be able to access a “Changing Places” toilet with extra features to cater for people with a range of disabilities.  This includes more space and equipment, such as a hoist and height adjustable changing bench.

These improvements are being funded through the Combined Authority’s Transforming Cities Fund programme, which is aimed at making it easier for people to walk, cycle and use public transport in and around Dewsbury.
