Preferred term

buses  

Definition

  • Buses are often seen as a cheap, dirty, inconvenient, and unreliable mode of transport, used only by those who have no other option. Yet Transport for London estimates that around 6 million bus journeys are made in London every day, with buses the fastest-growing mode of transport in the city. [Source: Encyclopedia of Urban Studies; Buses]
