Transport in the Dales is predominantly by road. The area is bordered by the M6 to the west, the A1 and A1M to the east, the A65 and A59 to the south and the A66 to the north. The A684 crosses the middle of the Dales from west to east. Minor roads pass through all the individual dales, and there are many smaller roads crossing from one dale to another.

Various public transport options are available from the main towns into the Dales. The main bus service is the Dales Bus (www.dalesbus.org). The Rail to Trail service uses the Bentham line, which runs between Morecombe and Leeds, to access the southern Dales (www.communityraillancashire.co.uk). Additionally, there are a growing number of community bus links operating, including The Little White Bus (www.littlewhitebus.co.uk), which serves the Upper Dales; the Northern Dalesman Bus (www.dalesbus.org/northerndalesman), which covers an area from Ribblehead through Wensleydale and Swaledale to Richmond; and the Western Dales Bus (www.westerndalesbus.co.uk), which runs between Dent and the Howgills. Many of these services are seasonal and run less frequently during the winter months.
