According to an annual transport survey of 29 local councils across the country, Nottinghamshire's bus services came out on top in not just one but 17 different categories. Leicestershire, meanwhile, languished some way behind. Not only was it rated poorly for things like passenger safety on buses, driver helpfulness and fares, but the amount of the Leicestershire covered by a bus also pales in comparison. Whilst around 88% of our county sees an hourly bus service at peak times, that falls by half to just 45% of in our most rural areas. Meanwhile, over the border in Nottinghamshire, an impressive 97 per cent of the county enjoys an hourly bus service. And despite swingeing spending cuts of 60 per cent over the last decade, that high level of service has been maintained.

And, Leicester has a bit of a reputation when it comes to digging things up, but now a new excavation is due to take place at Leicester's most important Roman site - the Jewry Wall Museum. Its part of a project to create better public access and to improve the condition of the site, which is expanding with the purchase of Vaughan College last year. Dr Richard Buckley OBE is behind the scheme, and was one of the team involved in Richard III's discovery. 91热爆 Radio Leicester's Bridget Blair has been to meet him.
