Better Buses for Merseyside Consultation

The Mayor has handed the decision to introduce a London-style system of public control, called franchising, to you. But you've only 48 hours left to take part.

Franchising allows fares, tickets, routes, and timetables to be integrated and planned in the public interest. It's the system used in every other European country.
