Rotala Management - Questions & Answers

Hiya simon,

Sorry to keep asking you about destinations, but on multiple streetdecks they seem to not be able to have 247 dests on the front. Vehicles: 40725, 40842 and 40827 ive seen with this problem and it seems to only affect them with 247 dests. Causes confusion when you have 247S and 247 both stopping same place same time.

Thanks.

Sorry - I will get this checked tonight

Hi Simon,

Apologies for being another one about destination blinds but Burton's 15014 was on the 70/70A today with no destination showing.

Thanks

I am advised this has been resolved.

15009. The screen displays the destination then changes to another display just with the letter X

We had some earlier problems which I understand have now been resolved.

Hi Simon any sign of the Aussies entering service yet

As the buses are the first Built by Custom Denning they need to go through whole type approval.  They passed this months ago.  The next stage was for the DVLA to issue paperwork to allow them to be registered.  We have waited months for this, and it came through this week.

They now need to be presented to a certifying officer.  We have applied and are waiting a slot for all 4 vehicles.

Question for both @Simon Dunn & @Tony.

What are your companies respective stances on X / Twitter, considering there is an alleged mass exodus elsewhere to the likes of BlueSky, due to the ownership of X?

I know Nx has a Threads account, dont know about Diamond though.

We don't have a position.   We have social media accounts, more for PR and updates.

Re 8 15A/C services.
Would it not make sense for Worcestershire Council to install proper bus stops in the Kidderminster area. A couple of locations where buses currently stop with no physical stop flag come to mind 8 Rifle Range terminus, 15A Silverwoods Way just after the Larchwood Pub and there's some new housing development at the bottom of the Chester Road South as well.

Where there are  shelters in place in the Kidderminster area some of them loook more like shells or wrecks than bus stops. With out of date service numbers (First route 1) on the flags, or no service information at bus stops.

Also the 8 seems to have a reliability problem.

Thanks for the reply Simon, nothing less than you would expect from multiple government departments
