glasgow guy · 25-05-2007, 18:13

as in the title - is there a bus that goes anywhere near greenbank industrial estate ?...dont mind a 10 - 15 mins walk - not really too sure where it actually is at this moment in time - but somone said you go past the range ? to get to it...

I have a (ahem) meeting with a company on there next friday after work ..but shhh..my current employers dont know

all I shall say is that its good to be wanted

If you go round the big whitebirk roundabout then down past mcdonalds to the smaller roundabout there is an exit to the right which goes into the range car park... so if you got off the bus opposite presitge beds then I would have thought it would only be a 5 min walk. Karma now please

Hi, i live in Rishton and used to work on greenbank, as previously said, i used to catch the Hyndburn Circular, get off at the stop after McDonalds and walk through the range ( theres a little bridge thing ) From there it only took me 5 min to get to work. It isnt Cad Capture by any chance is it!?

see this

I think from accy its the 6 there and the 7 back (only cos its other way round in harwood) if you got the 7 there it would take you all the way thru gt harwood whereas the 6 will take you straight to blackburn. But looking at the bus that comes from accy may not go to the roundabout side of whitebirk and you might have to get off at intack and walk down whitebirk road to the little roundabout

if you get the hyndburn circular from accy to blackburn via church you have to get off at intack lights and walk down (about 15 mins),if you go the other way through clayton and rishton you get off just after the roundabout and cross over and walk over the bridge(about 5 mins) but the bus journey is longer (about 20 mins longer)

You could also get the Accy to Blackburn bus and get off it near Tesco's/Jans petrol station
