Throughout the UK there are places where the public transportation system is outdated, insufficiently funded, or otherwise less than a desirable means of getting from one place to another. In the West Midland’s, and in particular, throughout Dudley, the public transportation system is excellent.  It is easy and safe for you as young people to get around with a minimum of hassle and stress.
