VOTE GREEN on Thurs 2nd May for BETTER PUBLIC TRANSPORT
WHAT WE WOULD DO:
Public transport is inadequate throughout our county, and has all but disappeared from much of rural Dorset. We would work with commercial operators and directly provide bus services.
We would connect public transport services together. We would pay for this by borrowing to invest in new green buses, using our existing school transport service and securing higher revenues from increased use of the services.
New investment should focus on making walking and cycling easier and safer. It should be much easier to have 20mph limits.
🟢 WHAT DORSET'S GREEN COUNCILLORS HAVE DONE:
✅ Removed the ban on A and B roads in Council’s old 20mph policy
✅ Continually supported adequate walkways and cycleways, and Electric Vehicle charging points in new developments
✅ After commissioning a speed survey, and with the help of a local Labour Weymouth Town Councillor, succeeded in getting a Speed Indicator device (SID) installed on the busy A354 trunk road
✅ Defended existing bus services.
