I am guessing that is what comes with major change, First Vantage are also short of drivers as well. Guess there may be some improvement in due course once things settle down, holidays this time of year are also presumably an issue, and as the schools go back next week, that might start to improve a little. I had noticed on Wednesday a Diamond Bus abandoned with its flickers on opposite Salford Crescent Railway Station, and had initially thought it had broken down, but this maybe due to staff shortages as you have suggested, as there was no driver anywhere near it.
