Rejected
11 signatures
What the petition asks
To ensure busses on local routes are on time and not over crowded, as the current bus services throughout Greater Manchester are over priced for the standard of the service.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
