I READ with interest the fact that the 519/520 bus service is to be scrapped.

I have every sympathy for the people on Johnson Fold Estate and believe they should have a service provided for them. Hope you are successful!

As a person from Great Lever who has suffered because the route 519/520 has not worked for us it is a relief to go back to 571/572 route.

Buses are often late because of traffic or just simply don't turn up.

Incidentally to the people of Johnson Fold who are complaining about the increase in fare from £1.30 to £1.70 please bear in mind that from Great Lever to the bus station it cost us £2.30 and Great Lever is also a deprived area.
