Norfolk County Council has made a U-turn on budget cuts to bus subsidies and gritting routes.
The council had planned to cut half a million pounds from subsidies for bus routes to help plug a £125m spending gap.
But following a consultation, its environment, development and transport committee voted to stop budget cuts.
Martin Wilby, chair of the committee, said the consultation response "demonstrated
just how important these two services are to the people of Norfolk".
He said additional money from raising council tax by a further 1% would be used to maintain funding for buses and gritting.
