Another option, if you have a couple of £s, is to get a bus to the nearest services. Get bus 444 from stop P5 which is on City square, opposite the train station. You can also get the 110 bus to Wakefield, leaving from Leeds bus station roughly every 10 minutes. These buses will take you to Wakefield Bus station. Alternatively, you can catch the train from Leeds train station to Wakefield Westgate station and then walk 10 minutes to the bus station. Usually tickets are not asked for on train to Wakefield Westgate and from there, to get through barriers at Leeds just buy a 'metro concessionary fare single Leeds - Burley Park Road' for £1.00. At bus station you will need to catch the 96 bus from the station (£2£3.50 each 00 - july 2011July 2014). After quite a long, windy bus route you need to get off on Bretton lane, just before the Yorkshire sculpture park (get the driver to give you a shout). Walk up Bramley lane and you will see the services. Cross over the bridge to get to the southbound section. If you get lost ask people for ‘Wooley edge services’ – they might think you’re a bit nuts but will generally help. Once you find it it’s fairly easy to get lifts. You can also stay on this bus until just after Yorkshire Sculpture Park, and get off at the stop on the roundabout. You can hitch straight from here, as there is a slip road to the M1. It's a bit quieter, but saves you the walk to the services.
