Time is running out for bus users to have their say on controversial plans to withdraw funding from subsidised routes in Hertfordshire.

Hertfordshire County Council’s second public consultation on proposals to save almost £1.5million from its bus budget ends tomorrow.

Under the plans, funding would be axed for Sunday services, except for routes that directly serve a hospital that would run until 7.30pm.

Funding would also be withdrawn for services which operate after 7.30pm between Monday and Saturday.

The council also plans to amend its bus strategy and modify the criteria which dictate which routes receive County Hall funding.

Council chiefs claim just two percent of all passenger journeys would be affected by their proposals to save £1.471m per year.
