No Countryside Explorer Bus For 2010 season.

Heather Kidd has expressed support for Highley Unitary Councillor Mary Nicholls and the Explorer Bus Working Group who are disappointed to report that the tourist bus is not expected to run for the April to October season this year, despite much support from residents on the route and a number of funding groups who were all keen to see the bus reinstated.
