CHEERS, for the new SMART bus shelters now completed at many of the stops.
It is a treat to be able to sit in comfort while waiting for a bus. Good news also to overhear a conversation while doing so to the effect that only fire will destroy the glass. If true, how frustrating to the vandals.
We now urgently need a re-hunanising of the bus services themselves, enabling passengers, mainly pensioners, to travel in greater safety and comfort. To achieve this end, conductors must be brought back.
There is more to life than profit, and SMART bus shelters are a step forward in the right direction.
