Investment in public transport to improve services
The popular Call Connect bus service that provides a lifeline to many residents in rural areas is set to continue improving transport services across North Lincolnshire.
More than 3,000 people have already registered to use Call Connect – it provides a more flexible service for residents in areas that are currently poorly served by traditional bus services.
Usage continues to grow – in just one month (October 2017) 2,510 journeys were made.
A more flexible transport service is proposed that would:
- Use Call Connect where passenger numbers are low and the current service is infrequent
- Introduce fixed routes with Call Connect where there is sufficient demand
- Work to integrate school and college transport to secure best value for local taxpayers.
- Invest £1.8m a year in concessionary fare bus passes for older and disabled residents
There will also be further improvements to bus services between Kirmington (and Humberside Airport) and Scunthorpe; between Ulceby, Wootton, Thornton Curtis and Barrow, and Hull, Scunthorpe and Grimsby; between Brigg and Barton; between Brigg and Kirton; between Appleby and Scunthorpe; and across the Isle of Axholme.

Don't miss bin day over Easter!
Waste and recycling collections across North Lincolnshire will change on the week commencing Monday 26 March due to the bank holiday on Good Friday (30 March).
There will be no collections on Good Friday, and instead all collections will be brought forward one day on this week.
For example, if your usual collection day is Tuesday, your bins and boxes will be emptied on Monday. Wednesday’s collections will take place on Tuesday and so on.
The following week (from 2 April), waste and recycling collections will take place on your normal day.
To make sure you don’t miss your bin day this Easter, check your collection calendar carefully. You can also check your collection dates online.
Did you know most of the packaging from your Easter eggs can be recycled? Find out how on our website.
