Rarely does something new appear on the service front, but recently I've been involved in two interesting developments. The first involves Telford, which despite receiving no BSD3 funding, was concerned that there were deficiencies in its local bus network. Many factories work a three-shift system which the bus network did not cover. Dial-a-ride was seen as a glorified taxi service and poor value for money. Using a combination of Section 106 payments, moving schoolchildren onto public buses and some new money, Telford devised four routes - two rural services, one for workers and one designed to fill other network gaps. |
