]]> Doncaster Greens have been consistent supporters of the Better Buses for South Yorkshire campaign so we’re pleased that the South Yorkshire Mayor is finally putting plans to franchise bus services out for public consultation.

Councillor Tony Nicholson, who was out again campaigning with the campaign group on Friday (pictured) said,

“This is the system used in London and many other major UK cities. If implemented, fares, routes, and timetables will be set by the local council and not by private bus firms.”


Please follow the link below and complete the consultation by saying yes to franchising. “We Own It,” who campaign for public services ownership, has produced a guide, linked below, on how to complete the form, quickly and effectively at: https://weownit.org.uk/VotePublicControlSY


Consultation ends on January 15th so there is still time to get your voice heard.
