Bus travel between Greater Manchester and West Yorkshire is about to get better and brighter thanks to plans unveiled by the rapidly expanding bus company Team Pennine to improve a key bus link.

Currently Team Pennine runs buses on the 587 route between Rochdale, Littleborough, Ripponden and Halifax only on Sundays… however, starting on Monday 25th July 2022, Transdev's Team Pennine will take over all weekday journeys as well. A new timetable will be implemented, with departures every hour from Monday through Saturday and four excursions per way on Sunday.
Customers travelling on the revitalised route for business or pleasure can expect travelling in style as well, as the bus company has promised to introduce nicer, brighter, refurbished low-emission buses onto the 587 route in the near future, sporting Team Pennine's eye-catching pink livery.
Team Pennine General Manager Joy Devine said:
“We’re looking forward to providing the 587 route seven days a week, with an easy-to-follow timetable and friendly drivers to welcome everyone on board.
“The changes also mean Team Pennine’s value for money ticket range will now be available for travel on the 587 seven days a week - good news for fuel savers at a time when everyone is watching the pennies.
“We also plan to introduce refreshed low-emission buses in our distinctive pink Team Pennine livery soon, to deliver a brighter and better service while also helping to win over more new customers to the bus.”
The boost for the 587 cross-Pennine link is being delivered on behalf of Metro, the West Yorkshire Combined Authority’s bus and rail brand.
