Metro Mayor Dan Norris has called on bus bosses to revisit plans following recent changes to timetables and cuts to some services.
Passengers had been promised a better service at a meeting of the West of England Bus Forum, which was organised by the Metro Mayor prior to the timetable changes. The meeting, which was attended by both the regional bosses of FirstBus and Stagecoach, was told that driver shortages were causing a problem, but Firstbus and Stagecoach predicted that the recent bus cuts would improve efficiency.
Now, however, Mr Norris is asking whether feedback received from bus passengers, to say they are being left delayed and stranded after the change, is "teething troubles" or something more "terminal".
