When I was in Chester on Saturday Someone from the New Chester Bus Station information desk came on the bus as we were all getting off and said the 13:29 And 15:29 22 To Moreton Cross Were Cancelled due to Staff Shortages

Yep, that will have been me. I believe the 1329 service did operate in the end, with a spare driver that they managed to haul in, albeit running around 10-15 mins late.

I was going to go for the 15:29 but I went round the shops for another hour and got the 16:29 home. The 16:29 was packed I had never seen so many people on the 22 I was lucky to get a seat Smile

Just read a post from Mereseytravel on twitter saying that the 492 Will once again be cancelled tonight between 18:11 And 00:11 due to driver shortage

Wonders how much of a close eye Merseytravel are looking at Avon's problem.

It's actually stagecoach a lot of there drivers are going to, another 5 have apparently started there today, things arnt looking to good for avon

Surely they just can't keep cancelling services left right and centre and have no repercussions for doing so?

I would expect (and hope!) A tender or 2 is taken off them and given to someone else
