Wearing his North Lincolnshire Council hat, Councillor Nigel Sherwood revealed details of a new bus service to operate in our area when he gave his monthly update on unitary authority developments to Brigg Town Council's meeting in the Angel Suite.
Many local people will make use of this service, we are sure. It has operated very successfully "over the border" in Lincolnshire County Council's area.
Coun Rob Waltham, who is a Brigg town councillor and deputy leader of the North Lincolnshire authority, said the fares for non-bus pass holders would be reasonable.
Coun Nigel (pictured above) said the new service would bring lots of people into Brigg and was sure it would be "in demand."
Good...it may bring lots of folk into Brigg...but if such visitors have to wait in one of the town's worst grot spots for bus home...perhaps they'll decide not to do a return visit....
ReplyDeleteDo we know if this bus runs Saturday ?
ReplyDeletethis service will give people connections for humber flyer via humberside airport to grimsby lincoln via barnetby rail station & bus via messingham. did u know that the lincolinshire version already comes to brigg someone who lives down cadney road uses it.to answer our friends of brigg proberbly but you'll have to live the places mentioned so book the bus to catch the train.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the update.
ReplyDeleteIt's quite clear that by the amount of cars picking people up from Brigg Station now on a Saturday that a some form of bus service is needed from the Railway Station to the surrounding areas.
