Asked by:
Dr Simon Opher (Labour)

Improving bus services is a key part of this Government’s growth mission. We are determined to deliver better services, grow passenger numbers and drive opportunity to under-served regions. We have set out our plan to achieve this, centred around supporting local transport authorities to take back control of local bus services.

We will work closely with local authorities to understand what is needed to improve and grow their bus networks by learning from their experiences and building on their successes.
