Rural Buses Are Disappearing Fast

Did you know nearly 1 in 5 rural bus routes in England have vanished in just five years? Despite big promises and billions pledged, most of the cash went to cities, leaving the countryside high and dry. Some rural areas got as little as £31 per person, while cities got almost double. For many, buses aren’t just a convenience—they’re a lifeline. Locals and campaigners are calling for way more funding to keep rural communities connected. Wild, right? #RuralLife #PublicTransport #BusCrisis #Transportation
