Rotala Management - Questions & Answers

[Simon Dunn]

Hi Simon thanks for your previous reply

Can you please tell me why the 18:15 2L to Cleobury Mortimer from Kidderminster Town Hall on Saturday 27th June did not server Kidderminster Town Hall or Kidderminster, Oxford Street?

I was standing on Oxford Steet in Kidderminster awaiting the last 2L to Cleobury Mortimer at the time when I saw it come down The Ringway in Kidderminster having clearly come from the depot. Rather than the driver taking a left turn down Green Street so the bus could server the Town Hall where it starts from! It carried on up the Ringway to Kidderminster, Swan Centre where I could not get to in time before the bus did so I missed it and then had to walk home instead!

The driver has been interviewed and states that he has served the stop.

A note of this incident will be put on his file and should a similar incident occur, then this will be taken into consideration

@Trident 4194
A quick google search can find the answer to that, no it can only be brought at staffed rail stations in the NWM area

you really shouldn't believe everything that centro tell you  ;)

That was off NWM

That was off NWM

... which is © Centro....

It also alleges that the Adult Daytripper is only available from stations. I'd take exception to that as well, considering the number that I've bought on  a bus, both for 'business' & pleasure.

Hi @Simon Dunn
Thanks for your last reply

1) When are more MAN Plaxton Centro's going to be transferred to Kidderminster? Because the V and X reg SLF Darts have a horrible burning smell especially when they are operating the 2L or X3 for some reason?

2) Why is a MPD Dart allocated to the 4A in Kidderminster? Because the service always leaves full and standing. Also I don't think it is right for a 70+ year old woman to stand all the way to Fairfield all the time.

3) What is the plan for 30704 KX57 OVS and 30805 KX08 HMY are they ever going to go back into service?

4) What improvements will there be to the 2L in September as I have heard you have won the contract to run the service again? Will there be some better buses on the 2L route from September like some MAN or Volvo engined Plaxton Centro's?
