VERY Late running services

[Tony]

@Tony , a question if I may. We all know about drivers hours and that there not allowed to go over, what happens, say for example, in snow, where roads have become blocked and the route journey might take a lot longer than normal. Obviously a driver can't park a bus at the side of the road and leave it, is there something written in the regulations to take account for this. Sorry if this question has been asked before.

there is an exclusion for 'exceptional circumstances'

Look at the time my comment was posted...
The 15:09 from city was 1898 and arrived 12 mins late. It got to the terminus with 1896 behind and the driver called the radio on 1898 and left NIS.
Of course I don't know, even though I boarded the late bus in town and alighted on the estate...

It's the way you worded it. He didn't radio until near enough 4pm anyway.

Those displays on the ticket machines are great, aren't they?

Bristol road services are suffering. Seen 4629 and a 550* hybrid both running NIS together. Also saw a first b7rle running NIS towards Birmingham turning off the Bristol road.

Temporary  way traffic lights on Bristol Rd by Sir Harrys Rd.

On a stretch of the road thats been begging to be widened for years, a bus lane would have been great there, even a left only filter lane at Priory Rd from city, but no, what do we get? - a cycle lane.
Instead of improving thousands of peoples journeys every day, a hand full of cyclists will benefit instead.

Huh?

The ones saying how late the bus is!
