MP backs bid to reinstate bus service

-

TORBAY MP Kevin Foster have thrown his weight behind a campaign to reinstate two community bus services in the bay.

As revealed by the Herald Express, Torbay Community Developmen­t Trust has announced it will suspend the 60 and 65 services linking Paignton and Torquay from December 8 for at least four months while it takes stock.

Mr Foster said: “This will leave many residents in Livermead, Babbacombe and Preston without the service they rely on for everything from a trip to the shops to attending a hospital appointmen­t. Torbay must find a solution. I will be meeting with local councillor­s and residents to see how we can do this.”
