Stagecoach is planning to remove the following journeys because they are not well used:

0628, 2020 & 2220 Leamington to Warwick – Monday to Friday.

This is dreadful, when some people who use the buses rely on these times to get to and fro from work.

It's a case of use it or lose it.

Yet we're trying to tempt more people out of their cars and onto public transport, this is hardly going to do that.

When I was doing my MBA one of the lecturers had done an MBA a couple of years earlier and had carried out quite an in-depth research project into bus usage, particularly in rural areas. He actually managed to sell the project to a bus operator (I can't remember which one) for the mind-boggling amount of £50. - It was worth many times that.

One of his 'revelations' was that rural communities were going to become more and more isolated as bus operators cut back on non-profitable services.

That research was at least 25 years ago, things haven't changed.

Looks like Stagecoach is cutting services across the county: https://www.leamingtoncourier.co.uk/news/traffic-and-travel/bus-routes-are-set-be-changed-and-some-services-cut-altogether-and-around-leamington-warwick-and-kenilworth-here-are-details-1352384
