GREEN LIGHT FOR BUS SERVICES FUNDING BID
Members of Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority Board, at their meeting on the 27th October, gave approval for the submission of a Bus Services Improvement Plan to the Department of Transport at the end of this month.
As part of the National Bus Strategy for England (announced in March 2021), which involved a major change in the way that the bus industry operates, all Local Transport Authorities, outside of London, are required to publish a Bus Service Improvement Plan. The plan sets out how a Local Transport Authority, which in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough area is the Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority, proposes to deliver their ambitious vision for bus travel in the future.
