Sadly the chicken factory has not stayed safe. Has there been an impact on Arriva Bangor staff? Or more deckers needed, or overcrowded? A comment on bbc radio news this morning suggested staff canteens and car sharing might be contributory factors - so is the bus a factor?

The Bus in question Has the standard Social Distancing Practices in Operation and only operates two working diagrams daily, to accommodate peak hours for the factory workers.
Despite the factory being closed, the Vehicle continues to operate its diagram. Considering this has happened in other sites such as Wrexham and Merthyr Tydfil, it seems to be more of a organisation problem than a general spike
2914 has now returned back to Bangor from St Helens now freshly repainted in the new livery. 2915 is now the next bus to be done at St Helens for repaint.

They should have kept 4409 was on the correct journey in the morning but not evening. Another decker should have been put on. I hope arriva will increase services in over a week on the holyhead service.
