Passengers unhappy with both rail and bus services are now able to register their complaints with a single organisation.

The Rail Ombudsman and Bus Users UK are jointly looking at a range of new services including workshops on complaints handling and at public events - particularly in areas where there are no transport interchanges.

The Rail Ombudsman has existed since 1992, while Bus Users UK is an independent campaigning charity, part of the Sustainable Transport Alliance that works to promote the benefits of public, shared and active travel.
