No, not the name in and of itself.
Harking back a bit to the BTC, I suppose, here, and for the "PTE" areas it wouldn't really apply.
But bus and rail is woefully integrated outside of urban areas in England, even worse than it is in urban areas (and that is bad, hence the likes of Greater Manchester pushing for better).
So should the new organisation actually carry a level of responsibility for both rail and non-urban bus, so that the bus network can more effectively complement the railway network, to fill the many inconvenient gaps and create a genuine network with a single ticketing system and a single, uniform timetable?
