Analysis: County's subsidised bus services to continuepublished at 17:00 GMT 22 November 2016
Wesley Mallin
BBC Radio Derby political reporterIn January, the council announced plans to withdraw funding for many of the county's subsidised routes.
But when it consulted on the plans more than 4,000 responses convinced it to think again.
It was concluded the cuts would hit the worst off and women disproportionately.
The funding will continue for the time being while the council looks for alternatives.
Cuts to dial-a-bus and community transport will go ahead but the authority is looking at ways of replacing those services.

Calum McKenzie
BBC Local LiveHere's what Roger Helmer has said about Nigel Farage and a potential stateside role in a little bit more detail.
"I personally think it would be a fantastic idea," Mr Helmer told BBC Radio 4.
"I think it is extraordinary the relationship Nigel has built up over a long period, especially over the last three or four months with Donald Trump.
"I don't think there is any other man or woman as well placed to have the ear of the President-elect."

East Midlands Today chief news reporterThe inquest heard from Derbyshire Fire and Rescue Service watch manager Anna Cartwright who said it was one of the most severe house fires she'd ever attended and wasn't survivable.
Station manager Adam Hind, who carried out the investigation, said traces of petrol were found in upstairs bedrooms and on Mr Saxton-Cooper's clothes, along with a disposable lighter that had been used deliberately.
Shelley Saxton-Cooper had been stabbed 18 times. Det Con Lyn Abdy said it will never be known what caused her husband to kill her and there was no suicide note.
The inquest recorded conclusions of unlawful killing for Shelley Saxton-Cooper and suicide for Simon Saxton-Cooper.
