I would be interested to hear the views of members on this topic and wonder whether Steve Rotherham might follow suit. Not strictly true. The Press Release makes it clear that Andy Burnham has NOT yet decided that Franchising is the chosen way to go, rather it confirms that he is putting everything into place to make sure that all the information Mayors etc are entitled to under the Act will be made available as soon as possible. Basically, the status quo is failing and he wants/needs it changing as quickly as legally possible. Of course, the meeting took place *before* the two main Operators announced more inflation eclipsing fare rises. Not that EITHER event has been picked up by the MEN. |
