To mark World Environment Day (5 June) it is encouraging bus users to try digital schedules instead.
Simon Finnie, Area Managing Director from Arriva Midlands, says: “We are currently placing greater emphasis on green issues, and are committed to making changes to ensure we can play our part in tackling climate change, so seeing figures like this, and not acting upon them would be a disservice to ourselves and to the people we serve.
