Yes indeed, public transport should get a fuel subsidy .
Public transport should be heavily subsidised so that there can be more services .
i believe the Peak District has in the past had a very frequent bus service between the cities and the crags - Not sure why it was taken off
The pubs certainly sold more beer

I am used to public transport and just shrug when a service is late

However , i have known people who are using buses just as a one-off ,to swear 'never again' if there is delay -
Those with a choice need persuading and the marketing has to be strong

Services need to be frequent so you are not left shivering at the roadside waiting , nor are you forced to hurry off the hill to avoid a very long wait if you miss a bus .

It was noted in the Marhofn (Marilyn Baggers journal)that I am a very 'green' hillwalker - at least the author had the sense to mention that in many cases it is out of necessity
Do you really think I would travel as do with the choice of using a car
