Further AnalysisThe review of local bus services in the Melton area has been undertaken in a holistic way. Access to essential facilities and services, school travel and access to primary healthcare have all been considered. Integration of services has aimed to retain access but with fewer buses. Further to the initial analysis, additional detailed analysis of passenger data has been undertaken to understand the demand for travel. The tables below show the results of the analysis of each service, based on passenger data for the period January to April 2019 inclusive.

Summary of Intention to Replace Service 128 with DRTThe intention is to replace service 128 with a Demand Responsive Transport (DRT) service. The service will provide the villages of Ratcliffe on the Wreake, Thrussington, Hoby, Frisby on the Wreake and parts of Kirby Bellars (which are currently served by service 128) and Gaddesby (which is currently served by service 100) with a DRT service to Melton and Syston. A further DRT service will also be provided for the villages of Cold Overton and Knossington. The details of the proposals will be discussed at the relevant engagement events.

Community Engagement We will work with affected communities to shape local transport solutions that may either complement, improve or replace the county council’s offer if we consider it to be cost-effective and in line with our Passenger Transport Policy and Strategy and statutory duty.

Details of a range of potential community solutions are available in Part A of the Engagement Pack and on the county council’s website www.leicestershire.gov.uk/passenger-transport

Feedback Comments or queries about the review of these services and the outcome should be emailed to [email protected] or call 0116 305 0001
