Written evidence from Brympton Parish
Council (BUS 94)
I refer to your recent request for information on
cuts to bus services in Somerset.
Brympton Parish Council consider it is too early
for consultation to take place as the cuts have only just come
into operation. Could the consultation be extended?
The Parish Council expressed concerns regarding the
loss of Sunday and evening services - many people in rural parishes
do not drive and the bus is their only means of access for hospital
visiting, shops, recreation and other services.
The Parish Council is also considered that there
may be an increase in drink-driving offences.
