If you can afford a house on the great park ( starting from 325000 i belive) you can afford a taxi to where your going or even to the first stop with an arriva service. Alos all these new developments.. people who buy a house for 250000 plus with a double garage and 2 parking spaces arnt going to use the bus!!
Absolutely this.
While some on here bang on about buses not taking people where they want to go, we mustn't overlook the fact that planners and schedulers could spend millions on surveys finding out where people wanted to go - thus solving the problem - only to find that people are still not using the bus services on a network that has been redesigned and ostensibly improved.
No matter what you do, people are not going to give up the convenience and utility that the car offers. Let's face it, if you can afford to run a car, then you're probably not going to use a bus.
