Eighty new electric buses are also planned to be introduced – hopefully by the end of 2020. These new electric buses will be welcomed by passengers, pedestrians and cyclists. While it's important to plan ahead, smaller short-term wins such as bus priority are also important. When the hubs and increased congestion started slowing down our buses, the lack of bus priority planning became very apparent. That bodes well for a regional council that last term refused to meaningfully engage with unions.
