Sean Clark+FollowRural Buses Are Disappearing FastDid 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 #Transportation31Share
Dr. Jamie Ferguson+FollowDogs on Seats: Entitled or Just Cute? 🐶That viral Sydney light rail pic of dogs chilling on passenger seats has the internet totally split! Some are calling out the owners for being 'entitled' and ignoring public transport rules, while others say Sydney needs to catch up with Europe where dogs are welcome everywhere. The real drama? Even dog lovers are divided—some say it's gross and unfair to allergy sufferers, while others think humans are worse offenders! Where do you stand in this pet debate? #DogDebate #PublicTransport #Sydney #Entertainment80Share
ywheeler+FollowWho Else Is Over 'Bare Beating' on Trains?Ever been trapped on a bus or train with someone blasting TikToks or music for the whole carriage? Turns out, this annoying move has a name: 'bare beating.' Brits are so fed up, politicians are actually pushing for a ban (with £1,000 fines!) on loud audio in public transport. Most people are too polite to ask headphone dodgers to turn it down, but the outrage is real. Would you call someone out or just suffer in silence? #BareBeating #PublicTransport #HeadphoneDodgers #CommuterLife #UKNews #Transportation20Share
Sean Clark+FollowMelbourne’s Rail Makeover Is WildDid you hear? Melbourne just kicked off construction on the Suburban Rail Loop—a whopping 90km train line that’ll circle the outer suburbs. It’s the city’s biggest transport shake-up yet, aiming to make it way easier to get around without trekking through the CBD. We’re talking new stations, super hubs, and a total public transport glow-up. The first section (Cheltenham to Box Hill) is already underway, but the whole thing won’t be done for decades. Still, it’s a massive step for Melbourne’s future! #MelbourneNews #PublicTransport #UrbanDevelopment #SuburbanRailLoop #CityLife #Transportation00Share

Once it opens, it’ll be the busiest stop on the new Metro West line, connecting the city to Parramatta in just 20 minutes. Plus, two skyscrapers are going up right above it. Sydney’s about to get a serious upgrade! #SydneyMetro #CityLife #UrbanDevelopment #SydneyCBD #PublicTransport #Transportation00Share

Amber Mcguire+FollowLoud Music on the Tram? £1,000 Fine Incoming!Manchester commuters are split over a proposed £1,000 fine for blasting music out loud on public transport. Some are totally here for the peace and quiet, while others think the ban is overkill and not the real issue. Personally, I get the rage when someone’s playlist hijacks my commute, but a grand? That’s wild. Would you support a ban or just pop in your own headphones and vibe? #Manchester #PublicTransport #CommuterLife #MusicBan #LibDems #Transportation131Share
