Somerset Catch The Bus Campaign Launched

Today we have launched Somerset Catch The Bus Campaign. Its aim is to promote the greater use of the existing bus services in Somerset. 

Buses are a life line for the young, the old, the infirm and those who simply can’t afford to own and run a car. Bus services across Somerset have been cut and more are under threat. Increasing the number of people who travel on our bus services is one way of ensuring their continuation. 

We will be challenging County Councillors and MPs to use the bus whenever you can during Catch The Bus Week. 

We would like as many people across Somerset to use the bus whenever you can during Catch The Bus Week ( July 4th - 10th). Maybe by using the bus more it will become habit ..

We need as many people as possible to get involved with our campaign. 

Catch The Bus Week

Somerset Catch The Bus Campaign is part of a national Catch The Bus Week organised by Greener Journeys on 4th - 10th July. It aims to increase awareness of the benefits of bus travel and encourage people who don’t usually think of catching the bus to leave their cars at home and give it a try. This event is backed by many of the major national bus operators who want to encourage more passengers onto their buses.
