Title: National Bus Strategy: Bus Back Better - Transport Xtra webinar 14.4.2021 Post by: grahame on March 24, 2021, 15:19:05 National Bus Strategy: Bus Back Better
Wed, Apr 14, 2021 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM BST https://www.transportxtra.com/tx-events/?id=2532 Quote Bus Back Better - the National Bus Strategy is the most ambitious reform the bus sector has seen in a generation. Backed by £3billion of investment, the strategy aims to make buses more frequent, faster, simpler, greener and easier to use. But the funding is also explicitly linked to local transport authorities and bus operators in England being in a statutory enhanced partnership or exploring franchising arrangements. As part of the Public Transport Recovery series, Landor LINKS is bringing together key speakers from across the bus industry to discuss how the strategy will be implemented and what challenges and opportunities lie ahead. The webinar will be chaired by Jennie Martin of ITS-UK and features speakers from Department for Transport (invited), Atkins, City Science and Transdev-Blazefield plus an opportunity to take part in an interactive Q&A to conclude the webinar. A full programme will be announced shortly. https://register.gotowebinar.com/register/1253042347636000524 Quote The National Bus Strategy, Bus Back Better is the most ambitious reform for the bus sector in a generation.

(http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop/index.php?topic=24850.0) We will aim to be just as informative, and with ringmasters such as grahame and Peter Blackburn aiming to keep the likes of David Redgewell and myself in line, I dare say it will be just as entertaining as well. Seriously though to anyone reading this, please do come along if you have an interest and want to assist - We would love to have you on board.
