TRANSPORT is an essential industry and should be recognised as such. The entire country would grind to a standstill if the transport industry went on strike. Drivers and staff are predominantly trained and funded by our business as there are very few funding streams available.
Lately there are 'green' funds available. As an award-winning green and sustainable business, we sadly don't qualify for any, as transport can't be green and we cannot afford to replace the fleet with electric vehicles.
There must be more funding for transport and that to me is a key electoral issue that no parry is addressing beyond a few token words. Sarah Arrow
