Holywell

Holywell

This zone operates in and around the historic market town of Holywell and its surrounding villages. The town’s name is literally holy well, and takes its name from St Winefriede’s Well, which is a Grade 1 listed building and is claimed to be the oldest visited pilgrimage site in Great Britain. A popular walking location, the North Wales Pilgrims Way begins at Basingwerk Abbey, near to the town.

Tap on, Tap off (TOTO) is a simple method that customers can use to purchase an Adult ticket.

• Simply tap your contactless debit card or device on the ticket machine reader when boarding the bus.

• Then tap the same card or device on the Tap off Reader as you get off the bus.

• The single fare between the two points is calculated.

• If you make multiple trips and the fare reaches the price cap, which is currently the price of a 1bws Day ticket, you will get charged a maximum of £7.00 no matter how much your total fares are. If you’re making multiple journeys over 7 consecutive days, the system will work out if you’re better off paying for multiple 1bws Day tickets or a 1bws Weekly ticket.
