SIR – There’s a lesson the Worcester City Council can learn from West Yorkshire.
Like Worcester it has a bus service with fares too high and less and less people using them.
So Yorkshire’s council has decided they would dictate the prices and the routes they want covered then put it out to tender because, like Worcester, the bus companies were cherrypicking what they wanted.
I really think a city the size of Worcester should have a decent bus service which enables people to get home after 8.30pm.
It’s just ridiculous having a bus company dictating the terms it wants.
It’s about time the council broke the monopoly and brought in more bus companies and made sure they all cover each others tickets.
