X94 – Llangollen & District Friends of the Earth | Cyfeillion y Ddaear Llangollen a'r Rhanbarth http://www.llangollenfoe.org.uk Campaign news, comment and opinion from Llangollen Friends of the Earth | Newyddion ymgrych a barn o Cyfeillion y Ddaear Llangollen Tue, 26 Apr 2011 16:41:13 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.8.9 Bikes on Buses http://www.llangollenfoe.org.uk/bikes-on-buses/ http://www.llangollenfoe.org.uk/bikes-on-buses/#respond Wed, 20 Apr 2011 08:35:50 +0000 http://llangollenweb.co.uk/foeblog/?p=168 The Assembly government has recently announced that the Wales wide TrawsCambria bus network through Wales is to receive £2.2m to fund new buses. The X94 Wrexham-Barmouth bus service, which passes through Llangollen, is part of TrawsCambria network.

Public transport systems work best when they are integrated. By integrating bicycles with buses you greatly increase the flexibility of bus services. People can ride a short distance to their local bus stop, use the bus to cover the majority of their journey and then finish off the last few miles by bike.

The current fleet of buses which serve the X94 route are fitted with bike racks. This is a great idea, especially for the X94 which serves a number of tourist towns.

In reality there are some problems. The main problem is that passengers are not able to actually use the racks! I have been informed by several different drivers on the route that I couldn’t use their rack because it wasn’t working; in fact one driver said that the bike racks have actually never worked.

Let’s hope that the new buses bought with the £2.2 million investment of public money include provisions for carrying bikes that actually work. I have contacted the assembly government regarding this and am currently awaiting their response.
