Getting back to the original question... Would it be worth sending a
couple of managers from the area over to Sweden or Norway to see how they
manage to run a metric shedload of short ferry services effectively and
efficiently - and free to vehicles and foot passengers?

How frequent are those services, and how many vehicles do they move per
trip? A bus-like service needs to move a busload of people every ten
minutes or whatever.

Rubbish. There are zillions of bus services that operate once an hour,
or even less often. They're mostly outside London.

Since we were talking about a service in London, that's of no relevance
whatsoever.


Since when was Sweden part of London?
