It's reducing pvr on certain services temporarily due to serious staff shortages.
Certain routes will be dropping in frequency to reduce number of staff needed to operate the duties as there is to much lost mileage due to no staff as its like this everywhere at the minute and won't fixed anytime soon by the looks of it.
With drivers leaving the trade for new jobs and high numbers isolating due to testing positive along with people awaiting operations it's going to take a while to fill these positions.
