LANCASHIRE County Council public transport officers have received the plaudits of their political bosses to add to the growing list of industry awards they have won.
County Coun Hazel Harding, leader of the County Council, and members of the cabinet gathered to congratulate the public transport team on its success in attracting more passengers.
The department regularly attracts industry accolades and recent Highly Commended awards for the Ribble Valley Quality Bus Initiative and the Garstang Super 8 service have added to the list. Coun Harding said the work that had been done, particularly in rural areas, was now starting to pay dividends.
"The fact that we are regularly among the front runners for industry awards is very pleasing," she said.
"I am confident that we will continue to create services that really address the needs of Lancashire's communities and pick up awards along the way."
Coun Harding congratulated members of the public transport team, including Andrew Varley, Iain Aitchison, Phil Huddart and Alex Ainsworth with a number of other cabinet members.
