Jeremy and Karimah "The G1 is overcrowded in rush hour and people can't get on."

The Liberal Democrat Graveney Focus team is calling for more G1 buses at rush hours to relieve overcrowding. Graveney residents contacted the team about the problems they are experiencing at peak times - often the buses are too crowded to get on the first bus that passes. The team is also concerned about safety on crowded buses. G1s go at 20 minute intervals, with no increased frequency at rush hours. "Either the buses should be more frequent or they should be bigger," say team members Jeremy Ambache and Karimah Bouaichaoui.
