The Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority (CPCA) have announced that a 14 week consultation to help determine whether local bus services should be franchised will commence on the 14th August 2024.
From this date, everyone is being invited to have their say on the potential pathways for improving bus services for local communities.
“The consultation will compare a franchising solution with an Enhanced Partnership approach. Under a franchised network, the Combined Authority would contract bus operators to run services on its behalf but have control over the routes, frequency, fares and overall standards of the region’s buses. An alternative Enhanced Partnership solution, while producing benefits over the current bus service, provides less control over the routes, frequency and overall delivery of the services. “
We will share links to the consultation when they become available.
