There have been some problems with the bus service, especially its reliability, in your area over the last two weeks. Write a letter to the manager of the bus company. In your letter • describe what the problems are • explain how these problems are affecting you • suggest what you would like the company to do

Dear Sir or Madam, I am a regular user of your transportation service and take your
buses
to travel to and from my office on weekdays. I am writing to bring to your attention a few critical issues inflicted upon me and other commuters who use your service. I am hoping you would address these issues promptly.
First
, during the
last
couple of weeks, your
buses
are making recurring delays and
this
is affecting our arrival at our workplaces on time. To add more grief, a few
buses
do not arrive at all. A number of times, I had to wait for more than an hour and
then
hail a taxi to reach my office.
Finally
, some
buses
are full when they arrive, and
as a result
, cannot take any more passengers from the Victoria Bus Stand.
This
situation forces me and many other travellers to either take the congested bus and stand all the way in a miserable condition or wait for the
next
bus. I believe if
this
keeps happening, it would reduce people's trust in your service. I suggest that you add a few more transport to accommodate the passengers and manage the timetable rigidly. Thank you for giving the matter your attention, and I hope to hear your reply soon. Yours faithfully, John Andrews
