Wolverhampton bus services such as the No 3 need to improve. Disgusting service.
Rejected

What the petition asks
Buses not running to time.
I heard the transport base instruct the driver that when the bus is empty drive back empty to your relief. This was after two buses scheduled pass by in no service.
Fares have increased, but no service improvement
The bus tracker is showing false information.

People in Wolverhampton are left on the street early morning and at night waiting for buses.
There is nothing done when you complain, the bus station inspectors are arguing with customers when confronted with buses not turning up on time and one inspector in particular is quite aggressive in his manner.
I want accountability for the service providers for the poor service. I want to know how they are getting away with such a disgraceful service.
There must be somewhere customers can complain too.
