Essential Roadworks Force Major Bus Diversions

22 July 2026

Commuters and holidaymakers travelling through Skipton face temporary route adjustments as Gargrave Road in Skipton undergoes major commercial infrastructure works.

Gargrave Road near the Farm Shop site has been closed to through traffic to allow utility crews to install site infrastructure for a new petrol station development. The closure is scheduled to remain in place through August 3rd.

Regional transport coordinator DalesBus confirmed that routes 75, 580, and 864 are being diverted via Skipton High Street and the A65 bypass. All standard bus stops along Gargrave Road will remain out of service for the duration of the project.
