- freeze fares,
- restore the city centre freebies and make them electric,
- fully integrate local and regional transport,

Why is this important?
South Yorkshire traffic is in crisis: we need a better bus service to encourage people out of their cars. Too much traveller time is wasted in traffic queues.
