Bus Service 27 COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT MEETING Passenger transport is changing in and, at the same time as the county council is facing significant financial challenges, we are also trying to offer a better service to residents. The county council has developed a new Passenger Transport Policy and Strategy (PTPS) to ensure its passenger transport provision is fit for purpose and cost-effective. We are reviewing all contracted services across the county. The review of service 27 ( to ) is now complete and the intended course of action is to amend the timetable and reduce the length of the route, with the new route operating between Loughborough and only. The council would like to engage with affected communities on the outcome of the review and the intended course of action.
