The Transport Act 1985 was an Act of Parliament in the United Kingdom. It introduced privatised and deregulated bus services throughout Great Britain and came into effect in October of 1986. The Act was created as a response to growing concern about the environmental effect the private transportation was having and the public's objection to an increase in road construction. The Act was introduced by Nicholas Ridley and it committed to reduce the amount the public paid for commercial objects. This was achieved by reducing the control governments had of bus systems and reducing the subsidies to bus companies. The Conservative government also believed the removal of subsidies and local government control would lead to an increase in competition between companies. The deregulation of Buses app

  • Der Transport Act 1985 war ein vom Parlament des Vereinigten Königreichs verabschiedetes Gesetz. Er führte die Deregulierung des innerörtlichen Busverkehrs im Vereinigten Königreich ein und erlaubte den Aufsichtsbehörden den Busverkehr probeweise zu deregulieren. Es wurde auf Initiative der konservativen Regierung von Margaret Thatcher verabschiedet. Durch den Transport Act 1980 wurde bereits der überörtliche Busverkehr dereguliert. Die Deregulierung galt für alle Betreiber von innerörtlichen Buslinien im gesamten Vereinigten Königreich außer dem Verwaltungsgebiet Greater London. (de)

  • Der Transport Act 1985 war ein vom Parlament des Vereinigten Königreichs verabschiedetes Gesetz. Er führte die Deregulierung des innerörtlichen Busverkehrs im Vereinigten Königreich ein und erlaubte den Aufsichtsbehörden den Busverkehr probeweise zu deregulieren. Es wurde auf Initiative der konservativen Regierung von Margaret Thatcher verabschiedet. Durch den Transport Act 1980 wurde bereits der überörtliche Busverkehr dereguliert. Die Deregulierung galt für alle Betreiber von innerörtlichen Buslinien im gesamten Vereinigten Königreich außer dem Verwaltungsgebiet Greater London. Die Deregulierung trat am 26. Oktober 1986 in Kraft. Die lokalen Behörden wurden aufgefordert, in ihrem Besitz befindliche Buslinien auf getrennte Gesellschaften zu übertragen, die nicht der direkten Kontrolle der Behörden unterstanden. Die meisten dieser kommunalen Unternehmen wurden bis auf wenige Ausnahmen privatisiert. Für Greater London wurde ein Franchising-System eingeführt. (de)

The Conservative government also believed the removal of subsidies and local government control would lead to an increase in competition between companies. The deregulation of Buses applied throughout Great Britain, excluding bus services in Greater London, and was led by the Conservative government. Public transport remains under direct public control in Northern Ireland. (en)
