Londonlink Cut - Bagshot Cut Off?

December 30, 2005 11:50 AM

Councillors Bryan Ward and Meurig Williams check out the times for the last ever Londonlink through Bagshot.

Local Liberal Democrat Councillors have been contacted by many residents following the termination by Green Line of the popular Londonlink coach service.

Bagshot Borough Councillor, Bryan Ward said "Bagshot may still have a train service, but the Londonlink provided a different type of service. Many Bagshot residents have told me of the problems they now face following the termination of this service, with parts of London which were easy to reach before and now are not."

Bagshot Parish Councillor Meurig Williams continued "People find they can no longer get to hospitals or visit their family. No doubt because of their self imposed £50 million budget crisis, Conservative Surrey County Council won't even consider a small subsidy to this service that would enable it to continue. Our local Tory County Councillor didn't even reply to a letter from Windlesham Parish Council about the cancellation of the service."
