The above is a tender and it is a change in policy by Nottinghamshire County Council. They have had an obsession with NOT funding routes into the heart of the city but terminating them at the fringes or at local centres - eg 528 at Phoenix Park, 865 at Clifton P & R, 863 at Gamston, Morrisons etc. This reduces passenger numbers significantly as many people don't want the hassle of connections, makes the service more expensive to run as fewer passengers and thus greater cost per head and thus creates a reason for total withdrawl, (note how all the peak tenders (was it 850-852) disappeared at the south of the county within a year of starting). Interesting change of policy certainly.
