The document titled "Making bus a better choice for young people" by Transport Focus explores the challenges faced by young people in using buses and how their needs can be better met. The report presents the findings from the research conducted by Transport Focus that involved collecting the views of 8,128 young people aged between 16 and 18 across England. The research identified several issues that affect young people's use of buses, including frequency, reliability, affordability, ease of access, and perceptions of safety.
