Salisbury data

Salisbury (charged by vehicles)

“As you will see, we had strong growth up to the start of the recession. From March 2008 to May 2009 the numbers were showing a decline. Since May, passenger figures seem to have stabilised (no further decline) but they have not recovered to the pre-recession levels. This is inspite of the rise in concessionary fare usage.”
