Hmm. Who knows. But I think Stagecoach might take some parts of FirstGroup's bus operations. Wonder if Stagecoach would have a go at Bath.....
Good lord - wonder what route it took
It would’ve used the diversion route, for when the guided section is closed or if a non guide wheel bus has to be used.
Shame about the timings (evening rush hour) as, most of the day, that's likely to be faster that faffing around with the busway.
When I saw it it was going west down The Grove at about 19:00. I think it had come from Redcliffe Hill as I didn't notice it at Temple Meads. When I got home I did some investigation on bus times. My guess it was probably following the A2 route, and running early.
They are not supposed to follow the A2 route, they are supposed to follow the route as above. If it was that late and it had no passengers for Temple Meads, it may have been regulated and instructed to go to the Bus Station.
Isn't that answered in post 22115?
47545 has been working Wells duties since 1640 Bath-Wells 174 on Saturday.
But currently 7 out of the 10 Streetdecks in service, an improvement on the last few weeks.
True but four deckers VOR is a bit to cope with. Don't know if 32673 was a replacement for 69438?
How about keep the Eclipses and get rid of the Streetdecks?
Lack of capacity?
Expect it all depends when/if more B7TLs/B9TLs are available to replace them.
Bigger capacity than a broken down streetdeck
Leeds seem to like them and wouldn’t think somewhere like Norwich would say no.
According to bustimes.org it spent the whole afternoon from 14:55 to close of service on the 42/42A yesterday (Thursday), and today it's on the Y4 Yate to Bristol, starting with the 07:15 ex Yate and continuing throughout the whole day.
Robert - what is the basis for that comment? Have you made specific detailed enquiries?
