Regarding the service cuts more generally I don’t understand what planet the councillors are on by hauling Stagecoach to a meeting to explain why they’ve withdrew services the Council decilned to contribute to.
The councillors need to be lobbying government for reform of how supported bus services are ran, not blaming the operator.
What I find interesting about it, is that neither of the parties appear to be budging.
For all the finger pointing and accusations, what is already a poor, expensive network, is going to get worse.
The cycle continues and the network is left with what?
If the opposite was to happen and rather than axe routes, improvements were made, the network has the potential to grow and numbers increase.
