L M Blythe is wrong to blame my company for the decision to cut out the No 35 bus route (Letters, October 3).
It is one of just four daytime city bus routes that are not commercially viable and funded by Brighton and Hove City Council.
The council has given notice to terminate the service as well as the No 13 because of its budget overspend.
I believe this is a retrograde step and will lead to hardship to passengers, as L M Blythe describes.
We are looking at ways to try to maintain some journeys without council funding before the cuts are implemented in January.
-Roger French, Managing Director, Brighton and Hove Bus and Coach Company
