@AdrianCartwri20 @GlasgowEcoTrust @FoEScot @SPTcorporate @Glasgow_Times @GetGlesgaMoving @PovertyAlliance @ScottishTUC @P4F_Scotland @ScotPensForum @We_OwnIt @asthmalungscot @APRScotland It can now, using the new powers in the Transport Act 2019. However, we want the 12 Councils across Strathclyde to work together through @SPTcorporate to start a new publicly-owned operator for the whole region. This will spread costs/benefits and ensure regional connectivity 🚍
