Suffolk Coastal is a bus desert
Too many communities across Suffolk Coastal are being left without the bus services they rely on.
​
From “ghost routes” that have disappeared altogether to services you simply can’t depend on, I want to hear your experience.
​
Public transport isn’t a luxury – it’s how people get to work, education, healthcare and stay connected.
​​
Time for action
I hear the same story week in, week out:
-
Routes cut with little warning
-
Unreliable services you can’t plan around
-
Communities left isolated
And this is happening despite millions in funding.
-
£3.75 million invested between 2023–2025
-
A further £8 million allocated for 2025/26
-
Yet over 1 million fewer bus miles in just a few years
Put simply: more money, fewer services.
That’s not good enough.
I'm pushing for more
This survey will help build a clear, evidence-based case for change.
I’ll also be bringing together operators, decision-makers and residents later this year to push for real improvements.
​
But the strongest argument starts with you.
​
Together, we can fight for the reliable bus services our communities deserve.
