Have your say on the new local Bus Plan

Residents are invited to shape the future of local bus services as part of the West of England’s Mayoral Combined Authority’s new Bus Plan. 

The consultation, which runs until 10 May, is a chance for everyone to help shape improvements across the region. It is an opportunity for people to share what is most important to them when it comes to buses, whether that is frequency, making it easier to use multiple routes in one journey or going green. 

Helen Godwin, Mayor of the West of England, said: “We want to help more people across our region to get home sooner, get out into nature more, and explore the best the West has to offer, rather than being stuck waiting for a bus or in traffic. 

“Residents, businesses, bus users and people who don’t get the bus too, can have their say about what matters most, to help shape improvements for our buses, as we build a transport network that people can trust. 

“We have secured a record-breaking investment in transport in the West from the government, and are planning to invest £150 million into bus improvements. With your feedback we can make sure that we get the most out of our huge investment into regional transport and deliver the bus network we all deserve.”
