This evening I need to catch a rail placement bus from Three Bridges to Haywards Heath but will have over a 20-minute wait due to a lower frequency in bus services compared to most than other hours and I was wondering why they might run a lower frequency.
This is the frequency per hour
05:00-05:59 x2
06:00-06:59 x3
07:00-07:59 x2
08:00-14:59 6 per hour every hour
15:00-15:59 x4
16:00-18:59 x6 per hour every hour
19:00-19:59 x4
20:00-20:59 x5
21:00-21:59 x6
22:00-22:59 x6 originally but 1 cancelled
23:00-23:59 x4
0:00-0:59 x4
01:00-01:59 x1
02:00-02:59 x1
Only trains before 08:00 and after 23:00 have the same frequency or lower, along with the 15:00-15:59 period.
Does anyone have any thought as to why they might have a lower frequency between 15:00-15:59 and 19:59? Given there are higher service provisions on either side of those hours, I wouldn't have expected fewer buses.
Do less people tend to travel between those hours? I don't think they run fewer trains during those hours on a normal Sunday.
