Bus routes serving Thornbury and Yate are to be cut, Metro Mayor Dan Norris has announced. First Bus is cancelling some services across Bristol and South Gloucestershire, according to the Labour mayor, who blames the decision on the "Government's approach to bus funding".
He says the T2 and Y2 services are to be slashed as well as some services to Chew Valley. There is also a proposed route change to the 92 service, connecting Hengrove and Broadmead, which will no longer serve Whitchurch or the South Bristol Community Hospital from the end of April.
First Bus has been approached to comment on the cuts and changes to services, which are yet to be made clear on its website. It comes after the bus operator made major changes to its routes in January, which saw them altered to suit demand.
