Protesters * UK - Win first round in bus battle
Residents fighting to restore a vital bus service have scored a small victory in their battle with transport bossesSunderland,England,UK -The Sunderland Echo, by Danielle Beeton -30 May 2007: -- Nexus, which oversees public transport in Tyne and Wear, has launched two new dial-a-ride buses to serve the Dairy Lane Estate in Houghton, but residents say they will still push on with their fight to restore their service bus... Commuters and elderly residents were left stranded when bus company Go North East axed the 148 route which served Houghton's Dairy Lane Estate for "commercial reasons"... OAPs were particularly hard-hit by the decision, which left them facing an hour-long round trip on foot into town to do their shopping... (Picture: Coun Joe Lawson, left, and Vince Hills, of Nexus)
