Also, what do they mean about "Actively working to lower congestion"? Apart from possibly introducing/increasing parking charges, LA's can't interfere in the free market where people choose to use cars/rail. The only area where LAs and other public bodies are failing - spectacularly - is law enforcement.

Typical First though. More excuses not to invest in new vehicles - let's instead recruit more 'business managers' with degrees in just about everything business wise but have absolutely no understanding of public transport!

Problem here in Manchester is when the main rival (Stagecoach) is continually investing in brand new vehicles it makes the lack of investment by First all the more obvious.
