Sheffield has some good news on buses
But lots of missed potential...

Headline of an article reads: "Free travel pilot scheme for young people approved

Children and young people who live in Sheffield will get free bus and tram travel across South Yorkshire after a pilot scheme was voted through by councillors."For years the Sheffield Greens have been calling for free bus travel for all under 22s.

Oliver Coppard, Labour's South Yorkshire Mayor, has just received £1.3 billion from the national government.

He is supposed to be responsible for funding public transport in Sheffield.

But he won't cough up the cash.

So much for devolution Prime Minister Andy Burnham. This centralised power grab is the exact opposite. 362 square miles of planning authority ripped away from local councils and local people. It's easy to talk a good talk but if you're more than just hot air, you'll reverse this.
