now to me this is a good thing (to others it may not be) i know if i buy a bus pass/day pass i can use it on several different buses in several different towns because Transdev own them.
When i go upto my sisters on Willows lane i know i can get a bus ticket for the day that gets me from my house in Blackburn, into Accy and then on the bus upto Fern Gore and back again and it only costs me £4 and i can use it all day going wherever i want within Darwen, Blackburn and Hyndburn (this is called a £4 spot on ticket)
With the more expensive £6 day passes you can even go to Burnley and Manchester.

now to me that has to be an improvement on the transport system we used to have?


i know on Rossendale transport these tickets for the day only cost £3.50 but you have more scope with Transdev and the buses are newer
