I've seen quite a bit of stuff about longest bus routes and the furthest you can get on a single ticket, but does anyone here know what the shortest bus route in the UK is?
I've done a bit of swotting up around Greater Manchester, and it looks like the 440 Rochdale to Syke bus is the winner around here, with its regular route taking 10 minutes from start to finish. It's essentially a circular, as it turns around and goes straight back, but is timetabled as an end-to-end.

I've found plenty of other sub-20 minute buses, but I'm pretty sure we can shave a couple of minutes off the record!
The only caveat I'd mention is to exclude the free shopper buses.
