Improve bus services in and around Plymouth
Increase the number of buses to the areas surrounding Plymouth, and decrease the prices of these buses.
Why is this important?
Public transport is very important, especially for young people, as it provides independence and improves connections between places. However, many young people find themselves unable to afford the increasing prices of buses: for example, a single to Tavistock costs £4.80 for those over 15. Additionally, many bus services to areas surrounding Plymouth are very infrequent: the bus to Wembury can be less often than every 2 hours. Better public transport will greatly increase the connections between areas in Plymouth, and will make the lives of young people much easier.
