 Taking the bus - Crankcase
I see today the Government wants to be seen to be doing something about the busses in England. Faster, cheaper, more frequent.

After all, the BBC article says.

"Transport Secretary Grant Shapps said: "Buses are this country's favourite way of getting around.

Government figures from 2019 show that 7% of people travelled to work by bus, while 68% commute by car."

I like the definition of "favourite".

Anyway, we don't have bus passes, so a trip into Cambridge and back is £14 odd. We tend not to do that.

Will this initiative get you onboard?
