READING about some people’s reaction to the month long closure of the Subway (Evening Times July 5), obviously some people have never travelled on buses before.

You indicate to the driver that you want the bus to stop by sticking your hand out.

The exact fare is £1 and regular travellers should know that. The single fare on the normal bus service is £2.15 for most journeys.

If the replacement bus was to use Partick Exchange they would displace or delay normal services but I suppose for subway travellers that this is acceptable.

Perhaps SPT have made a mistake by providing the replacement services, they should have directed people to the alternative bus services.

For those with season tickets an accommodation could have been reached, for those without then they could pay a bit more. The replacements are just adding more traffic to already over crowded roads.

THE only Subway station that doesn’t have alternative scheduled bus services adjacent or nearby is little-used West Street which could readily become a valuable major transport interchange, akin to and emulating Partick.

Most Glaswegians have never been on the Subway anyway!

Our Dad took us on it as small children just to see it.

I’ve never been on it since. Not even at university.

WITH the Scottish Government doing everything in their power to keep Scotland in the EU, the possibility of Scotland remaining in the EU - and the rest of the UK leaving - is of concern.

We cannot ignore the concerns of the people who voted to leave the EU, most of whom are concerned with the effect immigration is having on public services, NHS, schools and housing.

Can we honestly think it’s fine for the rest of the UK to leave the EU, gain control of their borders and control immigration but Scotland remain in the EU, keep an open door policy and have no control of immigration?

Surely not.

ALL parties in Scotland are too busy scoring brownie points to get our vital services funded and staffed adequately.

Our health secretary has no medical experience or qualifications except a degree in Social Science from Jordanhill college.

NHS 24 is a shambles, as is Police 101.

The buck must stop somewhere.We are rapidly becoming a third world country.
