Rotala Management - Questions & Answers

What is happening with 30833 & 30834 will these be reinstated at Kidderminster or Redditch or will some vehicles be going to Preston Bus

There is no intention at this time to reinstate these vehicles

[bususer12]

Any reason why a bus due at xx:10 pulls onto a layover at 08 past and sits there talking to drivers, and decides to pull into the stand 8 minutes late? 226 13:10 from Dudley if you want to check.

This sort of driver behaviour does nothing for the sustainability of the route.

How come 30813 on the 302 was running out of Kidderminster towards Bewdley with nothing on the destination display at all.
Seems to be a common thing with Kidderminster vehicles not to have working destination displays.

Can I congratulate the driver of 20051, in avoiding what could have been a nasty collision at the Sneyd Lane / Cresswell Crescent in Bloxwich earlier.

Approaching the junction, some silly driver decided to pull out in-between him & a parked up Nx vehicle at the stop, taking up his stopping/braking room, so emergency stop time!

(By the way, same vehicle's front display wasn't working though!)

I have shared your comments - we will investigate this.  Thank you

I have shared your comments with the Operations and Engineering Manager.  I have asked them to come back to me on this.

Thank you

Thank you.  I will pick up the destination comment on with our Engineering team at Tividale.

Hi Simon,

Looks like Burton's 31432 does not have a working destination while working the 1205 Derby-Derby 70 today.

No front destination display on 20530 - paper route number on display though. [202]. Not able to check side and rear displays as the bus pulled up behind me whilst I was driving.
