Results from #YourBusJourney by @TransportFocus underscore the need to curb congestion.

For operators to deliver more reliable punctual bus services, the next government must require all local authorities to improve bus speeds by 10% over the next 5 years. #DrivingBritainForward

[Michael Trew @MichaelTrewYork]

One of my work colleagues has recently been diagnosed with MND.
He’s only 36 and got married last year.

A campaign has been launched to help make adaptations to his home. All donations very gratefully received.

[Kim Cain (Purcell) @KimJPurcell]

I can't put into words how amazed I am by the kindness of everyone's donations so far. Please take a few minutes to read this if you haven't already, and if you are able to give a little or even just share the link, it would be greatly appreciated 💔🫂

So now that we know Franchising is not a silver bullet, perhaps future franchising attempts will learn from this and work with the industry. Too much change too soon

[Campaign for Better Transport @CBTransport]

Weakening bus priority measures will do nothing to ease congestion! As with road building, opening up bus lanes to drivers will only increase traffic, while bus passengers will have to deal with delays and longer journeys.

Buses are brilliant - let's keep them moving!

The Government is considering moves that would weaken bus lane provision, giving cars more priority.

[Campaign for Better Transport @CBTransport]

Bus lanes work! They make journeys quicker and more reliable, which encourages more people to choose the bus... and that's good news for all road users.

Take action - email your MP in support of bus lanes👇

@lambrikki6 @NoConceptOfTime Cross subsidy already exists, the most profitable routes in most cases cover large portions of the companies overheads. Without these, many other routes would be unsustainable.
