• A plan for bus inspectors to have radio contact with the City of Oxford Motor Services offices to give the public more warning of bus delays and non-arrivals is being considered, the deputy transport manager, Mr. W. Price, stated recently. He was speaking at a meeting for a discussion on bus problems and new developments.
Mr. Thomas White said that the worst problem was not knowing when a bus was going to arrive. "It is not funny to wait for half an hour," he said. He then asked if there was any way the public could be warned.
Mr. Price said that they were studying radio control. "We are hoping to set up a control system based on the Queen's Lane office. Inspectors in various parts of the city will be linked by radio. We hope in this way we can pass on information more quickly to the general public".
