Title: Socio-demographics statistics on bus and train travellers in the South West Post by: Bus_Lady on May 08, 2020, 19:42:13 Does anyone know of any sources / have any information on socio demographic statistics on bus and train travellers (ideally commuters or people who use services to 930am) in the South West? I want to look at social demographic differences between bus and train commuters in the South West (or a smaller geographical area) as I wonder if this will effect their response to travelling on public transport post the lockdown when restrictions are lifted...

That's an excellent thought. And (but London not the South West) there were a couple of contributors to the London TravelWatch seminar who likely have the data ( example - http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop/index.php?topic=23410.msg287852#msg287852 ) Title: Re: Socio-demographics statistics on bus and train travellers in the South West Post by: Bus_Lady on May 09, 2020, 08:24:58 Eightonedee must say I haven't really spent much time looking at Transport Focus until recently more familiar with Bus Users UK and Campaign for Better Transport but will definitely have a look.
Thanks Grahame, seems like a really interesting seminar will take a listen when I can grab some time, you would have thought I would have had more time during lockdown....
