Metrobus-GoAhead Group's Crawley Fastway service has been shortlisted for the Street Transit award - not Lt Col "Tex" Pemberton's West Sussex County Council ("Unloved buses on track for award", The Argus, October 6).

Let us just hope, for the taxpayers' sake, the Lieutenant Colonel will not be attending the UK Bus Awards ceremony at London's Park Lane Hotel on November 1.
