Public transport islands

I've got to say, my reletively short drive to visit a client this morning was horrendous, taking 1 hour 40 to do 35 miles, even setting off at 06:35. Due to cost, carbon and my loathing of being stuck in traffic, I've just looked up the journey via public transport and it would take 3hrs 15mins via 40mins of walking, 2 buses and a train.

I think public transport in our city regions is OK if you are travelling to that city centre. My journey is via Merseyside and Greater Manchester and the internal looking nature of what was the PTEs and some post Beeching rail weak points, regional commuting in the North West is awful to say the least.
