In a report released ahead of a meeting on the spending, the council adds: “In addition to the investment in new bus infrastructure, a number of bus services that are at risk of withdrawal will be supported and enhanced to maintain attractive levels of frequency, open up new connectivity and return to higher levels of commerciality as new travel and work patterns continue to stabilise and consolidate as part of the recovery from the impact of the pandemic.” The council is expected to accept the funding and discuss how it will be spent next week.
The Labour-run authority says the funding “provides a welcome boost as the public transport network continues to recover from the impact of the pandemic”. The council is being given £11.4 million to help keep them going and also build new bus lanes and other public transport infrastructure.
