Book Synopsis Bus Services Across the UK by : Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Transport Committee
Download or read book Bus Services Across the UK written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Transport Committee. This book was released on 2006-10-26. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buses are a key local service, but usage has been in decline since the 1950s. The Transport Act 1985 introduced deregulation, but that has failed to reverse that decline. The report examines the particular problems local authorities face in developing and implementing effective bus strategies. It is clear to the Committee that, for many areas, including all major metropolitan areas outside London, the current regime is not working. The Committee recommends more flexibility, and is particularly attracted by Quality Contracts. These would replace open competition with a licensed regime. Operators bid for exclusive rights to run bus services on a route or group of routes, on the basis of a local authority service specification. Independent Traffic Commissioners are another development that the Committee welcomes, and would like to see them have a higher profile and more resources and powers, especially to enforce Quality Contracts and penalise operators who do not meet their obligations. Others areas covered in the report are: securing socially necessary services outside the PTAs; congestion and bus priority; concessionary fares; and the image of the bus.

Book Synopsis Midland Red in Retrospect by : Bernard Warr
Download or read book Midland Red in Retrospect written by Bernard Warr. This book was released on 2021-11-30. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Midland Red in Retrospect covers the period during the 1960s when the Midland Red bus company dominated the Midlands, operating the lions share of the bus services and also operated express coach services from the Midlands to London and other locations. Like London Transport, Midland Red had a very distinctive image and had its own fleet of vehicles designed exclusively for its operations. This volume is written by someone who worked for the company during this period and reflects the color and atmosphere of this much loved and well remembered bus operator. Sadly the author passed away in September 2020, before the book was published and this volume of Midland Red bus pictures is a tribute to him.
