Council would stih^ pro vide the same level of payment, but the i^m-ed for person would become the "employer" and could choose who they wanted to care for them. It could not be a close
family member or some one living in the same house, but it could be a friend or someone who lives close by, making it easier than having to rely on someone from a care agency miles away, she smd. People were being
given a real choice about their care. But, she stressed that the Itowan organisation was there to help and advise people every step of the'way, helping them as much as possible to set up thie sys tem, to find a caper if they wished and, impor tantly, provide assis tance with the paper work. The carer would have
a contract o f employ ment and be treated like an employee in every sense of the word. J There were some reser

jpass^ngers were furious
after a ‘mistake’ meant some fares rose by more than 100%
by Robbie Robinson
AN error in setting up bus fare machines has left local passen gers fuming at price rises of over 100 %. Following the closure
at Easter o f the bus depot at Ciitheroe, the ticket machines in Lan cashire United buses, were Incorrectly reset. As a result some pas sengers were faced with huge fare increases. Mrs Delia Evans, who
travels from Standen Road, said the single fare had been increased from 65p to £1.05 and she could not now buy a
return ticket. As fares are the same over the Standen Road - Victoria Street loop, this mea'nt her return shopping trip to Ciitheroe cost £2.10. Mrs Evans said: "This
is disgusting. The rise has happened overnight without warning." She complained to the
driver who said buses now come from Black burn as the Ciitheroe depot was closed. She said: "I told him I
didn't care if he came from Timbuktu, Standen Road is still the same distance from the. Market Placa . "He said I'd have to pay the increased fare as
it ' was the - way the machine in the bus was set.
- ■ “ I told him to sort it
out or he'd get lynched. I got him to let me off at the interchange office and I filled in a com plaint form." She described how
pensioners' fares had risen and were causing confusion. Lancashire United
buses are operated by Blazefield Holdings. C om m u n ic a t io n s
Manager Mr Graham Mitchell said: "The ser vices that we operate in the Ciitheroe area are under contract with Lancashire County
Council and we are issued with fares b y them. “We do not have the
authority to change this." He said that after
receiving a fares chart following the closure of the depot, the company then received another shortly afterwards. . He added: "Probably following complaints and questions, a new fares chart was issued, which seem to be back to the old fares. The reasons for the changes are a mys tery." The mystery cleared a
little when Mr David Wilson at the county
council transport office said a mistake had been made in the reprogram ming of th e ticket machines. This was soon noticed
but, despite attempts to rectify the error, some machines are still caus ing problems. He
. said: "The
machines have been reset and the flat fare is still 65p, but some indi-vidual driver's modules are still not picking up the cor rect fares. “We are on the case
and will have it up and running properly as soon
as possible." He went on to say:
"We are sorry this has caused’ so much of a problem, but passengers who have been over charged can go to
Clitheroe Interchange office for a refund:'!. . ■

PLANS to build industrial units - and associated engineering opera- '■ tions at.IVhalley Industrial Park,' in Ciitheroe Road, have been given the go-ahead;; ' ;
■ / : . A previous application for the
site, which was tvrice the scale of the current proposal, had been refused by members of Ribble' Valley Borough Council's Plan ning and Development Commit- : tee.
... '■•",■ ' ' However, the new proposal was
seeking permission for a single storey building which would be subdi-vided to create four units.
Coun. Frank'Goss (Sabden)
said he had supported the pre'vi- ous application because it would - have "safeguarded local'jobs Md' added one or two'more", some-., thing which he said should be; encouraged in the Ribble Valley. And Coun. ' . Howel Jones
(Ciitheroe) said it would be wrong to turn the re'vised scheme down. He said: "It is important that 'we retain what industry we have and' encourage new industry. ' “The last scheme was found to
be not acceptable, but this scheme is well tailored and if there is
incursion into the countryside it is minimal." , . A report to committee said the
; new submission had been reduced in size and 'would have less inciu'-
3 sion into agricultural land. The ' officer noted: "I now consider this , revised scheme is significantly reduced from the previous sub mission and further amendments have been' secured to reduce the' amount o f countryside area affected by this development." Councillors sought assurance
from officers that adequate screening would be pro'vided.
