Bus operator First is facing a backlash over its decision to end a key service used by University of Leeds students.
Local Labour councillor Paul Wray said he was trying to organise a public meeting to mobilise support against the cut, while the West Yorkshire Combined Authority said it was “disappointed” by the decision and hoped the service could be “reinstated”.In a series of tweets, Councillor Wray said: “I still can’t quite believe that this is happening. I know the local student population of the area and many permanent residents are incredibly annoyed.
“Changing travel behaviours mean that we’ve seen a downturn in passenger numbers following the pandemic, and the bus sector is also facing a driver shortage. Therefore it is important that we use our resources where the demand is needed most.”
