Given the context of this thread and the discussion of affordability of bus fares,I assumed the link was reasonably clear. I’ll be more detailed in future.
I read the low subsidy part as perhaps meaning the route is only just commercially unsustainable. I agree that it’s likely to be the case once any funding dries up Stagecoach may decide to keep it on commercially.
The whole thing could be a moot point anyway, the 30 does not appear on the linked list of supported services under review, I wonder where The Guardian got their information from?

If he only changed his shopping habits (that we have no idea about), then he can afford the half price bus fares, (that we have no idea whether he knows about)...
...Meanwhile in the real-world, we have people who can't afford shopping, so rely on foodbanks to get by.
