Survey of Evening Buses in the Rhondda
Observation of evening buses in the Rhondda between 14.10.00 and 3.11.00
indicates:
70 per cent of buses are empty - i.e. driver only - no passengers
Average occupancy of 0.7 passengers per bus
With average bus capacities of about 36 seats, it means that only about
2 per cent of the seats are occupied - i.e. about 98 per cent of the
seating capacity is wasted
Because the above figures are based on a small sample, they must be regarded
as very approximate.
What is of concern is not just the figures but there appears to be no
acknowledgment that a problem exists, no consideration being given to
alternatives and (at least till present) no reaction to proposals for
alternatives.
