Written evidence from Mr and Mrs Hale
(BUS 119)
The loss of bus service for Elwick is a disaster
for local people. The elderly have no way in or out, and I'm sure
this will have tragic consequences regarding their health and
welfare. I use the bus and know from experience that for them
to go about their everyday business is very important to them.
It is a three mile walk into town and this is impossible as there
is no footpath, which makes it impossible even for people like
myself. We sincerely hope a solution to regain the bus is possible
in the near future.
