Sir – While John Tanner may congratulate Stagecoach on the introduction of its new hybrid buses (Letters, August 5), not all users will find double-deckers on heavily used routes with many short journeys such a boon.
Climbing up and down stairs on a moving vehicle loses some of its charm with advancing age, or are times buses are stationary at stops to greatly increase?
Incidentally is it not the county council, rather than the city council, which deals with transport?
