En-route to renewal: Delivering better, greener buses

Better, greener buses are possible. Their prolonged decline has hindered local economies, disconnected communities, and stalled reductions in transport emissions. The economic, social and environmental value of good local bus networks demands that we shift our perspective from viewing buses as a service purchased by consumers to recognising them as a vital public service and a key economic development tool. They underpin economic growth, enhance access to opportunity, support expansive lives, and contribute to a healthy environment.

At this event we will launch IPPR North's new report, En-route to renewal: Delivering better, greener buses. We are delighted to be joined by Simon Lightwood MP, Minister for Local Transport, and Steve Rotheram, Mayor of Liverpool City Region to discuss the report’s recommendations and their broader vision for the future of buses.
