An electric bus

North Somerset Council is inviting residents, businesses and community groups to take part in the next Bus User Forum, an opportunity to hear updates and share views on the future of local bus services. The forum will run across two sessions this October, one online on Monday 27 and one in Portishead on Wednesday 29.

Participants will hear directly from local bus operators, councillors, and council officers about plans for services, local offers, and updates on infrastructure projects. Sessions will also provide updates on funding available to support bus services and give opportunities to shape decisions on future service changes, including WESTlink.

Residents will be able to share their own experiences and ideas directly with both North Somerset’s bus operators and the council. The feedback will be collected and suggestions made to bus operators with changes encouraged, but the operators make final decisions on the bus network. Feedback will also be used to help determine which services the council financially supports or subsidises in the future.

Sign up using the links below.

Forum dates:

    Online session – Monday 27 October, via Microsoft Teams: North Somerset Council Bus User Forum October 2025 (online) Tickets, Mon, Oct 27, 2025 at 6:00 PM | Eventbrite
     
    In-person session – Wednesday 29 October, at Portishead Children’s Centre: North Somerset Council Bus User Forum October 2025 (in-person) Tickets, Wed, Oct 29, 2025 at 3:00 PM | Eventbrite

Both sessions will cover the same information, so attendees are encouraged to register for the one that suits them best.

Cllr Hannah Young, North Somerset Council’s cabinet member with responsibility for highways and sustainable travel said: “Reliable, affordable and accessible bus services are vital for our communities. We know punctuality and reliability remain a concern for many residents, and this forum is a real opportunity to share experiences directly with the bus operators and council. At the same time, buses are central to our long-term ambition for a more sustainable transport system in North Somerset that will help to reduce congestion and cut carbon emissions. By working together, we can make sure that the government funding we receive to support local bus services is targeted to best meet the needs of our local communities."

With thanks to infoman for posting the details, I have also added this event to the Coffee Shop forum's calendar.

William Huskisson MP (Member of Parliament, or Mile Post (a method of measuring the railway in miles and chains from a starting point - usually London), depending on context) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: Stop, Look, Listen.

"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner."  Discuss.
