What the petition asks
As a bus driver the cab can get upto 40° hot, but bus companies are not mantaining the air conditioning despite all buses being enabled
Tfl is not holding them to account and bus drivers and passengers are suffering, if its a passenger transport requirement then buses will not leave the garage without aircon

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
