For the whole of November, we are lifting the 9.30 rule on older and disabled people’s bus passes.
We are doing whatever we can to help people with cost-of-living pressures and make life a little easier. 🐝

Finally, the 2nd trial on removing the 9.30am restriction on older and disabled people’s bus passes starts on 1/11/25.
It will last 30 days and help us make a decision on whether we can remove it permanently.
Slowly but surely, we’re building a @BeeNetwork for everyone! 🐝

Another improvement launching today is live information on the app about the availability of car parking spaces at our Park and Ride sites.
Initially, we are testing the service and four sites but we hope to offer it soon at all locations. 🙌🏻

TravelSafe Live Chat is our response to the call from our residents for a stronger focus on safety on the @BeeNetwork.
We also know some worry about the walk from the bus or tram stop so we’re partnering with @StrutSafe whose volunteers are on hand to help you get home. 👍🏻

TravelSafe Live Chat will connect passengers within a few seconds with a real person and not a chatbot.
The service is supported by an integrated team of police and TravelSafe officers who can be tasked to provide a response.
Here’s how it works in practice.👇🏻

Today sees the launch of TravelSafe Live Chat.
We believe it’s the first service of its kind in the UK and perhaps anywhere.👌🏻
People can now make quick and discreet contact with transport-trained @gmpolice staff via the @BeeNetwork app to report concerns when travelling.

For the next four weeks, we are lifting the 9.30am rule on older and disabled people’s bus passes.
We hope it will help people over the summer as well as provide valuable data on whether we have the capacity and finances to make it permanent.

Timely catch-up with the Hillsborough Law Now campaign with @metromayorsteve.bsky.social.
Incredible to see how it has grown with so many people from different walks of life now behind it.
The message was clear: our resolve to fight for the full Hillsborough Law is only strengthening. 💪🏻

GM is growing fast.
We will expand @BeeNetwork over the next decade to meet the needs of our bigger economy.
BUT
There’s a limit to what we can do on a congested surface.
It’s why I am asking TfGM to start planning for an underground for GM around a remodelled Piccadilly.

In GM, we know we’ve more to do to improve taxi licensing.
But our new system won’t work if it can be undermined by out-of-area licences.
So we’re launching a bid to change the law.
Please ask your council to support the #BackingOurTaxis campaign. 🙏🏻
