A mum says she fears for the safety of her 11-year-old daughter after the council rejected her application for a bus pass because the vehicle is "too full".
Sienna Botham, who lives in the village of Buckshaw in Lancashire, is due to start St Michael's secondary school in nearby Chorley next month, but will have to get a public bus that doesn't stop near the school.
Her mum Marika, 42, wants her to take the 415 bus which takes pupils right up to the school gate, reports LancsLive.
