has allocated funding of £50,000 to carry out the review, which will place a particular focus on local and regional bus services.Iain Nicolson, Renfrewshire council leader, said: “We know about the concerns of local residents about the gaps in some of the local public transport provision. Many of these services, particularly local bus services are vital connections for many people to work, leisure and social opportunities.
“We should always be looking to make our public transport network better and all options will be on the table to ensure our communities have the best possible access to public transport and in a way that encourages them to use it. Consideration will be given to the Transport Act 2019 which has introduced powers for councils as local transport authorities to provide their own bus services, allows franchising of rights to the most competitive bidder, and the creation of Bus Service Improvement Partnerships which would bring bus operators and Strathclyde Partnership for Transport together to assess the provision.
