Is this a bus route that goes through an estate and people are just being too lazy to walk to the main road to get an alternative, perchance?

The proposal was being taken to the South Yorkshire Mayor to be submitted as I recall. How would you improve transport needs ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its recently been announced that the Supertram network will be getting £8.6M to improve and upgrade the system with an extra £4.3M coming from government funding. IIRC they also announce that there will be a maximum cap of £2 on fares as well but as I am a pensioner I will not pay anything as I have a free travel pass. You must be well chuffed that you will be contributing by paying higher taxes to pay for it! Edited November 16, 2022 by Dromedary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could approach it from a different point of view though. Sheffield Supertram is much greener than using cars or other public transport so any improvement to the network must also be a good thing when it come to climate change and pollution.
