PRESS COMMENT FROM ALISTAIR STRATHERN MP

FRIDAY 26 JANUARY 2023

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Commenting on the news from Central Bedfordshire Council that bus subsidies will be protected, Mid Bedfordshire MP Alistair Strathern said:

 

"Local bus services provide a lifeline to communities here in Bedfordshire. 

 

"I wrote to Central Bedfordshire Council as part of their consultation, urging caution on any changes to existing bus subsidies. 

 

"I'm pleased to see that they've listened to my call and the calls of residents in Bedfordshire, by announcing  that subsidies for bus services will not be cut. This is the right decision for everyone in Bedfordshire, who rely on our bus network to get to work, to school, or to access the services they need."
