Andy Burnham, the mayor of Greater Manchester, has driven an integrated transport system that ensures better organization and civic pride, marked by impressive passenger and punctuality rates.
Following the implementation of the yellow-and-black branded Bee Network, all bus services in Greater Manchester will be integrated in January, showcasing a significant achievement in transport management.
Recent announcements from the government signal an urgent move towards enabling councils across England, beyond mayoral authorities, to control bus services, enhancing local decision-making.
Critics argue that the historical double standard in transport regulation, where London was given special treatment over bus franchises, needs addressing to ensure fairness for all cities.
