2. Bus Service Review Rutland County Council aims to provide services that support the needs of passengers throughout the County In 2010-11, the Council spent £397,000 on subsidies for public transport in Rutland – funding provided by RCC to support service provision This supported 430,000 patron journeys in Rutland, a cost of £0.92 per journey The Council continues to seek ways to maximise cost effectiveness The RCC Scrutiny Panel will start a Task and Finish Group in Spring 2012 to review transport services in Rutland including home to school transport Parish Councils and residents will be encouraged to participate, in order to have their say on how transport is delivered in the future
