    Consultation response To: HOUSE OF COMMONS TRANSPORT SELECT COMMITTEE INQUIRY INTO VOSA's ENFORCEMENT ACTIVITES Date: 19th September 2008 Contact point: Jonathan Bray pteg Support Unit Wellington House 40-50 Wellington Street Leeds LS1 2DE 0113 251 7445 [email protected] 1. Introduction 1.1 pteg represents the six English Passenger Transport Executives which between them serve more than eleven million people in Tyne and Wear (‘Nexus’), West Yorkshire (‘Metro’), South Yorkshire, Greater Manchester, Merseyside (‘Merseytravel’) and the West Midlands (‘Centro’). 2. Summary 2.1 pteg welcomes this inquiry as we have been concerned for some time about: • the numbers of buses issued with prohibition notices following inspection by VOSA • the patchy punctuality and reliability of bus services, and the low level of resources which is devoted to investigating and enforcing punctuality and performance 2.2 Overall we believe that more attention and resources should be devoted to raising safety management, and vehicle and performance standards, in the bus industry. There is a need for greater policy clarity linked to clear objectives and effective enforcement. 2.3 The key national agencies involved – the Traffic Commissioners and VOSA – appear to have a disjointed and often inharmonious relationship. For VOSA bus reliability issues appear to be a ‘side-show’ when compared with their vehicle safety responsibilities. 2.4 More thought should be given by the DfT as to how the new Passenger Watchdog will relate to the Traffic Commissioners and VOSA. 2.5 The attention currently given to bus safety and performance is in stark contrast to that given to rail. 3.
