OK then, CC are trying something new and innovative. A council that is adding services and building a bigger bus network is rare these days and should be encouraged not dismissed
Let me know when Kernow or any other operator linked Redruth and Newquay or Truro and Newquay Airport, and run later services in the evenings and on Sundays on many routes. GCB is trying to deliver routes and services at times we haven't seen, and hopefully it will get even better
Yes there will be more to the 2020 vision, Marc said on Twitter registrations will come in three batches, obviously the first lot is for the tourist summer months, the next two should be the more long term, all year round ones
I certainly would welcome councils supporting and developing networks. Again, that’s not the point.
Aside from the Redruth to Newquay service, I’m struggling to see what is either innovative or logical. The others are either direct replacements for FK tenders OR modest frequency increases. Making the Pentire service hourly instead of two hourly is good but is it transformative?
Meanwhile, a bus across Bodmin Moor that serves nowhere seems odd. Same with Veryan to Snozzell or the Lostwithiel service. Yet the evening Tinners remain hourly and don’t serve St Ives? Surely enhancements to services like that would be more in line with supporting shift workers etc
There are some curious decisions and I’d be intrigued to understand how CC arrived at those decisions.
