There used to be two local bus companies where I am, but they merged recently.
I only use the popular route and it seems better than it was years ago, but I think other routes have gone to shit since.
While I like the convenience of the bus route I use, almost every journey there’s a guy whose pants are falling down, or someone who’s barking like a dog. That’s the main thing that puts me off using the bus, and I’m not sure what you can do about that :/
