Transport 35

By finding out the best way of getting around This magical city is easily explored on foot – the city centre is compact and enclosed within medieval walls that provide relaxing walking away from any hustle and bustle. Most of the historic streets are pedestrianised making sightseeing safe and enjoyable.

For cyclists, there is a network of paths and trails, plenty of cycle parking and access from National Cycle Routes 65 and 66. You can find out about bike hire from Visit York at 1 Museum Street or visityork.org.

If you’re travelling by bus, our stops all have electronic displays so you’ll have no problem reaching the most popular destinations. We believe York’s Park & Ride is possibly one of the best in the UK with six sites located around the outer ring road.

Use our i-Travel York journey planner for travel into and around the city by bike, bus, car or on foot.

Visit itravelyork.info for: Door to door journey planner Bus route map and times including Park & Ride York Cycle Route map and leisure rides Cycle hire, shops and cycling groups
