11 bus route

The 11 bus route is a premium standard more bus route operated by City Transport Newleaf Island from their Home Road depot inside and outside of Leeds. Pre-privatisation, the route was operated by Leeds Buses.

Details
The 11 runs every 10 minutes between 0630 and 1930 Mondays to Saturdays, and every 15 minutes outside of these times.

The route used to run with the N11 bus route, however this was withdrawn and replaced with the 11, which operates through the evenings with limited late night and early morning services.

The 11 creates a combined frequency of every 5 minutes between Leeds and The City with the 12 bus route, and a 5 minute combined frequency with the 49 bus route between The City and G-Ville.

An express version of the 11, the X11 bus route, was launched in November 2014 running hourly between Leeds and G-Ville, that will serve Diplomatic City and Boondox rather than The City and Boondox.

Buses
The route was formerly run with Wrightbus Eclipse Gemini bodied Volvo B9TLs, some of the newest examples with this body. Buses on the route were transferred from the company's Leeds Road depot in Home, and were built in 2011.

When the route had an upgrade to more standard, the vehicles on the route were replaced by brand new ADL Enviro400 buses to the more specification.
