  • Supplement to Newsletter 121: Because of the Temporary Closure Of
    Supplement to Newsletter 121: Because of the temporary closure of the copying shop we normally use (Staples at Mitcham’s Corner), delivery of paper copies of this newsletter has been delayed. If anyone not in receipt of the electronic copies would have liked to attend the climate lobby or the anti-austerity march (and hadn’t been made aware of these events through other channels), we apologise. There should, however, still be time to attend the Bedford Area Bus Users Society AGM on Sat 4 July, at which Claire Walters, the Chief Executive of Bus Users UK (to which we are affiliated), will be speaking. We have taken advantage of this delay to add some recent news (or items that have only recently come to our attention) – see below. Report on anti-austerity march: About 10 people assembled at the designated meeting point (EAT at 85 King William St, between Bank and Monument stations) and took the “Save Our Buses/Stop Cutting Buses” placards supplied by the Campaign for Better Transport. They also had a banner. Several other people expressed interest in our campaign and took further placards for use on the march – which was a start, though nowhere near enough to give the issue of buses the prominence it deserves. One campaigner from Fleet in Hampshire brought a cutout bus in the livery of what had been her local operator, Fleet Buzz, until it was taken over by Stagecoach. We then took our place in the march, arriving at Parliament Square about 15.20. As we weren’t at the front, by then the speeches had started, but they continued for over another hour, as more marchers arrived, ending about 16.40.

CB23. By Paul Tither. 9th August 2015. A report into the current parking situation in Cambourne By Paul Tither 9th August 2015 1.0. The current parking problems in Cambourne Everyone shares frustrations when driving around Cambourne. As more dwellings are built, the traffic build-ups increase during peak times. With more people owning cars than ever before, and an increasing number of households owning more than one vehicle, the places people choose to park sometimes leave a lot to be desired. In order to demonstrate some of the Cambourne residents’ frustrations, I carried out a survey through the Cambourne Information Facebook group, which encouraged people to answer the following three questions: 1. Are you happy with the parking in Cambourne? From 42 responses: 11.9% answered that they were happy. 88.1% answered that they were not happy . 2. Are there any problem areas you would like to tell us about? (No naming and shaming).

  • Written Submission from Cambridge Area Bus Users
    Cambridge Area Bus Users Working for bus passengers in and around Cambridge Transport Committee's inquiry on health of the bus market Written submission from Cambridge Area Bus Users Although bus service deregulation under the Transport Act 1985 was intended to create a competitive market, in practice competition in the market – as distinct from competition for the market, ‘franchising’ – has led to consolidation of ‘territories’ by operators and negligible competition. In the Cambridge area, Stagecoach are the major operator. Their focus appears to be on maximising revenue per vehicle-mile. Timetables have been changed frequently, with many city routes have a higher proportion of ‘short-turn’ working, (ie serving a core section of route, rather than the whole). The biomedical campus, which includes Addenbrooke’s hospital and which will shortly house a re-located Papworth hospital, has seen direct cross-city journeys reduced and/or cut completely. Rural services have been re-organised and many villages have lost all services, or all except a morning city-bound service with one evening return. Rural Sunday services are almost non-existent other than on two ‘premium’ routes. The largest of the minor operators, Swavesey-based Whippet Coaches, although part of a larger group which encompasses TfL-franchisees Tower Transit, have not expressed any intention to enter the more intensive city market against Stagecoach, despite the latter’s current problems with driver recruitment.1 Whippet were, however, successful in winning (in competition with Stagecoach) a contract to run Bus Universal2 – a ‘normal stopping’ service sponsored by the University of Cambridge, connecting a number of university sites, but open to all passengers.
