SIR: A five per cent fare rise by GM Buses North was reported in the BEN (May 7).
Rodney Dickinson, director and general manager thinks people will be prepared to pay a little extra.
From Tonge Moor to Bolton return has increased from 87p to £1. Is that five per cent?
Bolton GM Buses North must be the most expensive and unreliable service in the country.
Just try going for a bus after 6pm in the evening you will soon find out why.
Come on GM Buses, shape yourselves, and run fair services for the public.
Mr N Bamford
Thicketford Road, Bolton
