Blackburn council has cancelled a bus service to Walton-le-Dale High School affecting 171 families in Livesey, Pleasington, Ewood and Mill Hill
A senior Conservative MP has waded into the row over whether a Lancashire council should pay for buses to schools outside its area.
Sir Jake’s intervention follows a major row last year when the authority refused to step in to save the 981 service which took 30 children from Darwen, Turton, Hoddlesden and Chapeltown to and from Bolton’s Canon Slade School.
Blackburn with Darwen Council education boss Cllr Julie Gunn said: “We need to make sure the designated services which the council arranges and funds enable us to fulfil our home to school transport duties effectively. In early March, head teachers in Darwen and the south of the borough were given details of the consultation and parents were invited to make any comments on the council’s website.
