A’s local bus route has been cut. She says, “As I do not drive, having a bus that stopped right outside my door was one of the reasons that we decided to buy the house, as it meant that I could get about without asking my husband to take me everywhere. Also, when he no longer drives, which, now he’s 71, may not be too many more years, we could both still get about. We both use the bus for doctor’s and dentist appointments.”
