"o algún paradero de baja captación"
= "any (bus) stop with poor passenger take-up"
Cancellation of the bus priority lane
into Gloucester from Waterwells and the acknowledgement
that the South West bypass will be close to capacity on opening
will make future use of this park and ride site less attractive.
Purchase of buses to increase **passenger take-up**, particularly in
the Stroud area, has been scrapped.
