Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

The number 34 bus route has been scrapped - half of the community including old people get around on this bus and we can’t believe it
Speak to the Manchester council about getting it back

Why it was rejected

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

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about local bus services are a matter for bus operators and the relevant local authorities, not the UK Government or Parliament.

You could raise your issue with a local councillor who represents you. You can find out who your local councillors are, and how to contact them, by entering your post code here: https://www.gov.uk/find-your-local-councillors
