Rutland County Council Rutland Shore Link Bus
Make the most of this government service, I am told
Rutland County Council will not be funding the bus
service next year when the government funding stops.
The service runs most days empty.
The service is enjoyed by a few senior citizens who
don't have to pay.
One said "it's like have by own very large taxi"
It is noticed the bus often leaves Oakham bus station
before connecting trains arrives, which pleases local taxi
drivers who rely on the few passengers who travel to
Oakham by train.
The bus to work scheme is also failing as car drivers
say they prefer to keep driving.
