The bulk of it is what you'd expect, with the usual corporate 'annual report' style waffle, but page 29-31 contains commitments and requirements.

I did find this claim interesting on two points:

- Trying to compare a weekly ticket in London to a Newcastle SmartZone ticket... but given the vast majority of people work 5 days a week, it would still be cheaper to use two hopper singles a day at £1.50 a piece.

- Having a bit of a pop at the old subsidy argument, despite listing the economic benefits that bus travel delivers, elsewhere in the document!

Saying 'there are very few comparisons' in the leading paragraph, yet comparing in big green text alongside that very same leading paragraph?

I'll have a read of the full document later.

Thanks for sharing.
