ADVANTAGES OF QUALITY CONTRACTS
- set regular annual bus times and routes that could not be altered or cut at 6 weeks notice by the private bus companies, to suit them.
- smart ticketing that could be used across all buses and metros and ferry.
- bus users would have a bigger say in how their bus services are run.
- would stop the lack of competition between bus companies, exposed by government, which has meant higher profits for bus companies and higher fares for us. Fares would be set by NEXUS.
- this would support a bus system similar to the London bus system that works very successfully, with buses having similar livery.

My son is late for college constantly because of routes changing without warning. This needs fixing now.
Yes please. Being able to use the same ticket for the metro and bus would actually make sense for once.
JUST SORT IT OUT. Tired of being ripped off for a service that barely turns up on time.
Sick of prices going up every few months while the buses get worse. About time someone stood up to these companies.
Councillors need to stop listening to the bus companies and actually think about the people using them to get to work.

Make it like London. At least that way you know what to expect and you can use one ticket for everything. Ridiculous that we still have to pay separate.
