Campaigners welcome Welsh government's green light on public bus services
PUBLIC ownership campaigners have welcomed the announcement of a white paper in Wales today which aims to re-regulate the country’s bus networks.
The Welsh government is proposing a franchising model that aims to eventually deliver one network, one timetable and one ticket for passengers across the country.
It would also lift a ban on local authorities setting up new publicly owned bus companies.
