Dorset County Council needs to reduce the spend on public transport subsidy by £500,000.
The budget reduction will remove subsidy for services that run once or twice a week. Instead, the County Council will support the ongoing development of community-based transport schemes which can meet local needs better than traditional bus services.
A four-week public consultation asking local people how the changes would affect them will start on Monday 11 January.
You can see a list of affected services and have your say about the proposal by completing the survey at –

or by picking up a paper copy from any Dorset library, town or parish council offices.
