PLEASE can the Blackburn Outer Circle bus route be saved. I use it almost every day to get to Mill Hill to pick a child up from school.

It takes 15 minutes (including the walk to the bus stop) to get to Mill Hill. If I was to get two buses I would have to allow myself a whole hour.

The 12C bus is only every half hour, not always reliable and costs almost three times as much.

So 15 minutes by Outer Circle, 40 minutes to walk to Mill Hill and 60 minutes on two buses.

Why not put up the price of the Outer Circle rather than us having to lose it? I am sure people would rather do that.

If I return from Mill Hill by bus, the one from Mill ill gets in just too late for one bus so there is another half hour to wait in town.

Please, please save it at all costs. I even miss the ones there used to be during the day time.
