A morning commute on the Centre Shuttle service soon to be axed
The bus has been running every half an hour during the pandemic, having previously run every 15 minutes. Katie Cooper, from South View, is one reader who used the bus several times a week, to get from Basing View directly to the Aquadrome or Morrison’s, as she has disabilities and doesn’t drive. The 41-year-old said: “It makes things awkward. Now I can just cross the bridge and don’t have to change in the town centre. I wasn’t really travelling at peak times, but even if they just reduced the number of services it would still be beneficial.”
