Even if trams & better rail are part of our future, we'll still need better buses. We believe franchising is the way to achieve this.
The WECA Mayor talked about having greater control over our buses but refuses to take any steps towards franchising. Why?? 11/11
Just improving frequency of services on existing lines could make a difference but there could be even more. 10/
Too much focus on the Airport & not enough on links to dense housing & other employment opportunities. 9/
Good goals but would be so much more likely to be achieved through franchising. 8/
A greater level of engagement with the region's walking, wheeling & cycling groups is needed to ensure better & safer active travel infrastructure. 7/
Only 12 new school streets in two years across the whole region? 6/
However it's somewhat lacking. 5/
Good aspirations that could make a real difference to our region. 4/
The starting position is fair. 3/
Some of it is good and we're happy to see it. 2/
We at WESTACT have few things to say about the West England Mayor's Vison for Public Transport. 1/
