The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether she has had discussions with Filey Town Council on the return of the Filey Town Centre Bus.

Answered by Simon Lightwood

The government believes that local authorities, working with bus operators, are best placed to determine and design local bus networks in their area, and the government does not intervene in local decisions regarding individual bus routes or services.
