Surely they have to play their part too?

This is not specifically about Stagecoach, or any other bus company - it’s about the impact of congestion on bus passengers and other road users in the area and the situation simply cannot continue if we are to continue improving the local bus network and improving the local environment.

“Our passengers are paying the price for short-sighted policies that have led us to this point - we urgently need politicians to take practical action to get our towns and cities moving again.”

If fares and journeys were attractive, if they ran when people wanted them to and met passenger demands, rather than to suit their own operational whims...
Short-sighted policies indeed.

Don't get me started on a private operator, operating in a de-regulated market wanting even more government support than they already recieve either.

I've no sympathy at all. Not just with SNE, but other operators who are complaining about traffic.
