Simon Lightwood

Labour (Co-op) — Wakefield and Rothwell

Speaking in the House of Commons on 20 November 2025

Debate

Bus Services

Contribution

I agree with my hon. Friend. We are clear that everyone should have access to high-quality, accessible bus services. Responsibility for services in London sits with the mayor, and 96% of Londoners live within 400 metres of a bus stop. To expand the progress made under London’s Labour mayor, we will be developing a new national strategy of stopping place guidance to support inclusive bus stop provision throughout England.
