Amanda Hack MP Calls for Better Buses

Following my meeting with the Director of Environment and Transport at Leicestershire County Council on Wednesday 30th July, I am disappointed that feedback from both myself and residents seemingly has not been taken on board regarding the changes to bus services being brought forward by Arriva.
 
I am now calling on Leicestershire County Council and Cllr Charles Whitford, the Cabinet Lead for Highways, Transport and Waste, to provide a strategy that will actually enhance provision in North West Leicestershire, not continue to cut it. For too long our communities have been disconnected bus route by bus route.
 
I cannot accept the services that have come forward, especially given we have provided £8 million of additional funding to enhance and safeguard provision.
