The Department of Transport is aware of three recent reports. Greener Journeys released \u201CBuses and Economic Growth\u201D (2012), which was funded by Greener Journeys members, and \u201CBuses and the Economy II\u201D (2014), which was part-funded by the Department for Transport. These reports consider the number of people who travel on shopping trips by different means of transport, including buses, and the value of their spending. Passenger Transport Executive Group (PTEG), now Urban Transport Group, released \u201CThe Case for the Urban Bus\u201D (2013), which considers the extent to which people use buses for shopping trips in metropolitan areas.
