Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what plans he has to ensure that bus companies undertake a public consultation with passengers before submitting the required 56 days' notice for route changes to the Traffic Commissioner for Great Britain.
This question was answered on 20th April 2017
There are no plans to make it a requirement for operators to undertake a public consultation before submitting notice to the Traffic Commissioner. The provision of bus services and how to consult with passengers before making any changes to routes lies with individual operators.
