meeting held at the Civic centre in Trowbridge on Monday 22 May.

So many things were discussed,including Devizies Parkway,

the Cafe being closed at Melksham and the amount of cars NOT in the Melksham car park

possible due to the flat rate two pound bus fare.

Just wondering if GWR (Great Western Railway) could inplement a flat rate fare in its area of approx five pounds

valid after the peak monday to friday and availble first thing on saturday and sunday mornings.

I would be surprised ...  follow up at http://www.passenger.chat/27536 in "How Stuff Works" - our technical discussion area for dispassionate discussion, open only to members who are happy to get into that deeper stuff.   If you are NOT a member of "Transport Scholars", please like this post or message me and I will add you in to that group.
