More people than ever are travelling by bus in West Sussex.
New figures show more than 18 million journeys were made during the past year.
Numbers have been rising every year since 2001. Last year the figure was 17.2 million.
West Sussex County Council cabinet member for highways and transport Tex Pemberton said: "All the hard work by the bus companies is bearing fruit and there is more in the pipeline. More and more people are discovering there is a real alternative to the car, good news for congestion and pollution on our roads."
