Improve the dependability, accessibility, and affordability of Bus Services across Southend-on-Sea
The Cabinet Member for Environment & Planning of Southend Borough Council; The Head of Planning & Transport of Southend Borough Council; and All Southend Borough ward Councillors.
Public transport in Southend isn't working.
Bus users like you are already contributing to building a cleaner city. By taking the bus, you’re helping solve congestion, air pollution, and helping reduce the city’s environmental impact. Thank you!
But Southend Council has consistently failed bus users across the city. For decades we’ve seen fares getting more expensive, vital routes being slashed, and services becoming more infrequent.
If we’re to fix our problems with Air Pollution and meet our climate goals as a city, we urgently need dependable, accessible, and affordable public transport for everyone. That means having an integrated public transit system that makes walking, cycling, and public transit the cleanest, most affordable, and most convenient option across the city.
That starts by having a council that actually cares about buses, cycling, and walking.
Do you agree?
Join our campaign to pressure the council to make public transport in Southend better.

Dear Councillors,
We the undersigned demand that Southend Council takes urgent steps to improve the dependability, accessibility, and affordability of Bus Services across Southend-on-Sea.
For decades we’ve seen fares getting more expensive, vital routes being slashed, and services becoming more infrequent. The burden on which has been ordinary people.
If we’re to fix our problems with congestion and Air Pollution and meet our climate goals as a city, we urgently need dependable, accessible, and affordable public transport for everyone. Currently, the public transit infrastructure is simply not good enough.
We call on the council to review existing contacts and structures and implement an urgent public consultation on the required changes. We want an integrated public transit system that makes walking, cycling, and public transit the cleanest, most affordable, and most convenient option across the city.
It is your duty as publically-elected officials to listen to these requests, and act in the interests of local people.
