A Preston Bus service in Tithebarne Street Pic: Ian Simpson Preston Bus and its parent company Rotala are facing criticism over proposed evening timetable c

Preston Animate cinema reaches highest point in constructionA consultation launched by Rotala which included a ‘have your say’ section referenced an email address that was not working.Corporation Street bus gate cameras appear – but not working yetTom Quinn said: “The 100 service they are removing rarely actually have a bus on the route for those times so people have likely lost faith in using it. That and if it does turn up the driver will be running behind and skip parts of the route out.

April Dwyer said: “Can I suggest. that the permission Rotala have to use our city’s name on their buses is removed? If they can’t provide our city with a decent service – they don’t deserve to use our name.” Karen King said: “How can they be losing money when it cost £2 to go 50 metres. There are plenty of people who would use the bus services if they were better. Since they’ve merged bus routes and made each bus journey longer, people are not getting the service they were used to when Preston Bus was owned by the drivers. I have never seen it as bad.

A statement from Preston Bus said: “Preston Bus has been reviewing the patronage on a journey-by-journey basis across our network, we’ve identified several journeys with low levels of usage. Therefore, we are proposing to change the timetables so we can run a more efficient service for our customers.”
