Special Park and Ride and special tickets on NX

Liverpool Street

£80 to sit in the same traffic? No thanks.

And "bus priority measures"? Bullshit.

So Broad Street being bus only into city with police enforcement at Five Ways isn't bus priority? That isn't the only extra bit either

And will it be 100% enforced? Constantly for 6 weeks? What about the other side of town? Will we get any bus lanes?

Probably the first 2 weeks it'll be all enforced etc but it'll soon fizzle out and it'll be back to the usual. Reminds me of Moor Street actually!!

Snow Hill Queensway is also being bus only, and the cameras are being switched on in the city centre at long last

I have seen the signs, which is positive. I really hope many fines are issued.

They will be because of everything coming to or going from Holloway Circus will be going around there, but it will be helped by no cars coming down Broad Street

Liverpool Street

Ex-BC Driver? Why the ex?

And don't forget Bath Row... basically the whole city is going to feel the effects of this.

Also really sorry to hear that. Sadly, sounds like an all too common occurrence for NXWM drivers these days.

Could always apply at green bus/diamond/another independant-also sorry to hear that you have lost your job. There must be bus driver vacancies somewhere else though
