DUE to roadworks in Lower Eccleshill Road, there are no Transdev buses running through Lower Darwen at the moment.
But after Fernhurst councillor Jackie Slater got involved, a number of shuttle buses will be available for people needing to get on to the main bus routes and up to Royal Blackburn Hospital .
Timetables are available in the bus stops or in local shops.
Coun Slater said: “They have not considered the people of Lower Darwen at all. The drivers were just telling people it was finishing and not offering any alternative.
“You can’t isolate people from getting to work.
“Not everybody has a car to get around.”
