Tickets on the 773
Weardale Motor Services listed singles on this route when it last published its fares.
Single Ticket - Adult
Ticket types come from Weardale Motor Services' own fares data on the Bus Open Data Service, last updated 20 January 2021 — over 5 years ago, so what is sold today may differ. That dataset lists what's sold, not what it costs, so check prices with Weardale Motor Services.
Christmas & bank holidays
These dates are not the usual timetable for the day they fall on. They come from the operator’s published data, which for Christmas and New Year is often late or incomplete, so check with Weardale Motor Services before you travel. Everything above is an ordinary week.
Not published yet: Christmas Day, 28 December and New Year's Day. Operators often publish festive timetables only a few weeks ahead, so check again nearer the date.
