Oh, definitely. I don't know how much is deliberate and how much is incompetence here though.

I'm in Wales, so we've had the speed limit change to 20 mph. The point was supposedly to encourage people onto public transport, but the lower speeds have slowed the buses down to the point where services have dropped from every 10 to every 15 minutes. It might not sound like much, but when you're standing in the rain at one of the many stops without shelters, it makes a difference.

The much promoted electrification of the new South Wales Metro line has caused problems too. The train used to run on the same line to Cardiff and back, but now takes a different route to return. It now loops around Cardiff, taking an extra 30 minutes or so if you're coming from the stations before Cardiff Central.

I haven't been on one of the new trains yet, but apparently they've removed the toilets, claiming that the trains run every 15 minutes. The problem with that is, they only go to the nearest big town, Pontypridd. If you're travelling further up the line than that, they're still every 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the time of day.

It's a shit show, and doesn't seem to be getting better.
