MATT HANCOCK, MP: Threatened bus routes ‘are a lifeline’

News for Peterborough and Cambridgeshire - More effective buses, including through the use of the Mayor’s powers for introducing bus franchising are vital for the less well-off in areas where other forms of public transport would fail any cost-benefit calculation.

As many of you will be aware, Stagecoach have taken the decision to cancel Routes 11 and 12, writes Matt Hancock.

These routes run from Newmarket, Bury St Edmunds, and Ely to Cambridge.

I know that these routes are a lifeline for so many to get to work, school, essential medical appointments, and to be connected to friends and family.

I am deeply concerned about this decision. I have been in contact with Stagecoach and the local authority to ensure that your concerns are heard and to fight this decision.

It is not acceptable for Stagecoach to cancel essential services, particularly when they have received Government funding to continue to run these services.

The reason for me writing to you is to get your views and opinions on this subject. I want to hear about how you will be impacted by their cancellation.

This will allow me to continue to convey your views to Stagecoach and the other bodies involved in this decision. Please be assured that I will do all I can to fight this decision and hearing your views will help me in this endeavour.

It is important to me that I listen to views of all constituents, so I can best represent you in these discussions.

Please fill in this form so I can hear your thoughts on the cancellation of routes 11 and 12.

I want to hear your thoughts on the cancellation of routes 11 and 12 | Matt Hancock (matt-hancock.com)
