Save the 19 & 20 bus services in York!
We the undersigned are concerned about the proposed cuts to the number 19 and 20 buses that form a vital lifeline for many residents living along those routes. We urge the City of York Council to reconsider its plans and to leave both of these bus routes as they currently are, allowing residents to continue to have access to local buses near to where they live.
Why is this important?
The 19 and 20 bus routes serve areas of the city which are not covered by other bus services, so the council's proposals will cut off a vital lifeline to the residents living along those routes, especially those who are old or have limited mobility. Reliable and frequent bus services near to where people live reduce congestion and air pollution, both of which are major problems for the whole city. Cutting these services will force even more people to drive, making these problems worse. This is part of a major consultation on bus services in York and we will be submitting this petition as part of the response to the consultation.
