Bradford Council needs to take a much firmer stance on bus services which even pre-covid did not work for many people. Buses don't start early enough and finish too early for many people to be able to use them to get to work or for leisure purposes. Tickets are not integrated and many journeys cost far too much money given the quality of service, especially unreliability and slowness of progress. Buses could be reliable, integrated and environmentally friendly and thereby play a large part in enhancing our communities as well as clean air and the environment. The best route to achieve this would be through WYCA taking public control of our bus services, and thereby delivering good integration with rail and other services. Bradford Council should take a strong stance on this.
