Maintenance of Service Frequency for the 41 Odd Down Park & Ride Bus Service
To fund an additional bus during peak hours
for the 41 Odd Down Park & Ride service, ensuring the
preservation of its current 15-minute frequency. This investment is
critical to maintaining the reliability and attractiveness of the
service, particularly during peak traffic periods when congestion
is at its worst. By ensuring the service remains dependable, the
Council not only enhances the convenience for current users but
also encourages greater public transport use, reducing the number
of vehicles entering the city centre. This aligns with the
Council’s broader objectives of reducing congestion, lowering
emissions, and promoting sustainable transport options, which are
essential for improving air quality and the overall quality of life
in the community. The decision to supplement the route with an
additional bus is a proactive measure that supports long-term
environmental goals, enhances public health outcomes, and
strengthens the Park & Ride service as a vital component of the
city’s transportation network.
