Currently, those without cars, particularly the elderly and those with limited mobility are effectively cut off from Bradford’s major hospitals (such as St Luke’s and the Bradford royal infirmary), retail, and regional transport hubs. An hourly service would end this \"transport poverty\" and help our most vulnerable neighbours.\r\n\r\nIt also connects children to a key education","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":7,"created_at":"2026-04-12T20:39:50.748Z","updated_at":"2026-04-14T14:51:00.695Z","rejected_at":"2026-04-14T14:50:59.367Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2026-04-13T17:23:40.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"creator_name":null,"rejection":{"code":"irrelevant","details":"This isn't an executive matter for central government or for Parliament but for the relevant local authority."},"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}}}
