ON Tuesday, May 30 the No. 19 bus which ran from Clifton Moor down Burton Stone Lane, through the city and on to Monks Cross every half hour was suddenly reduced to an hourly service from Clifton Moor to Station Rise.
The bus company tells me it is because there are not enough people using it.
So why every day this week when I've gone to catch the bus there have been at least six people - and one day ten people - waiting at the stop opposite Burton Avenue? Once onboard some people have had to stand.
There are a lot of elderly people living this end of Burton Stone Lane so is it another way of getting our 75p pension rise off us by making us have to pay two fares to get to the city centre?
The buses already stop running after 6.30pm and don't run this way on Sundays and holidays.
We are supposed to be trying to get people to leave their cars at home but how can they when there's no other transport?
