THINK presents a variety of perspectives on how we can fall in love with the buses again across Wales and the UK. 
Hear from campaigners working hard to save their bus routes, retired bus drivers who reflect on how things used to be and what can be done to improve the current situation, a bus and coach industry representative and academics who provide tips on getting more passengers by making bus provision feel safer for more people, and how to get the message out to a wider audience about the benefits of bus travel. 
The recording was made in various locations including outside and online so the sound quality varies slightly.
