RE: Avon Buses
After talking to an ex Avon driver myself a lot more than 3 have left, 6 alone left last week for stagecoach, a few went to stagecoach last month, a couple have just left the industry and some to r&j travel. Things must be going wrong somewhere at Avon for drivers to jump in bulk |

RE: Avon Buses
That list is absolutely disgraceful! Merseytravel have know at least since the 9th June that Avon had been cancelling services! They haven't done anything and it's got progressively worse. Some elderly and vulnerable people rely on those services esp connecting places like Hospitals etc. An Emergency Tender should be issued as a priority for the tendered / partly tendered work.

RE: Avon Buses
Merseytravel must be thinking what are we going to do , this comes just before a service revision to routes to july and the upcoming review in September on the Wirral. Wonder whether the September date for the Wirral is set in stone . |
