Sheffield bus consultations

Consultations are being held on changes to the Sheffield bus network. Passengers are being invited to give feedback on proposals, including the optimisation of key routes into the city centre and better access to employment and training sites. The consultation is being held by Sheffield Bus Partnership and closes on 31 July 2015. Views submitted will be used to inform bus service changes, which are expected to be implemented from 31 October 2015. People can take part online at travelsouthyorkshire.com/sbp, via paper feedback forms from customer service desks at Sheffield and Rotherham Interchanges, or at consultation drop-in sessions in the area this month. The proposals come as transport authorities progress the aims drawn in Sheffield City Region’s (SCR) Devolution Deal to improve local bus travel, by building on the success of the Sheffield Bus Partnership agreement between Sheffield City Council (SCC), South Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive (SYPTE) and First South Yorkshire, Stagecoach in Sheffield and Sheffield Community Transport.
