Most of these services have low passenger numbers, even the 19, 32/32A and 35 which aren't proposed to be cancelled. From what I've seen the X46 has decent loadings.
Yes, but probably more than 1-2 passengers per trip. That isn't offering good value, and most of the routes that are being cancelled have alternatives.
Other secured services such as the 19, 317 etc. will carry a lot more than that on most if not all journeys.
