I am convinced the bus companies don’t consider the impact they have when they cancel services.

Today I came across an elderly lady at the bus stop. She had crutches (couldn’t stand for too long) and had to sit down on a cold damp/wet outdoor bench waiting for the bus from Denstone to Uttoxeter.

Sadly the early bus hadn’t turned up and the next one wasn’t  due for a further 40 minutes.

Couldn’t just leave her there. So walked home (round the corner) with the dog, picked up the car and drove her to Uttoxeter.

Please, can our bus companies (Trent Barton) consider the impact cancelled services have on people especially in rural areas.
