Looking at the posting, they don't make it clear if covid related changes or a permanent thing, seems to be provoking comments from some unhappy customers it seems too...

I have to say, one person I saw moaning they will now have to walk 10 minutes to the bus stop is just pathetic moaning for the sake of moaning.
Lots of people have to walk more than 10 minutes in Birmingham for a bus let alone small towns. Can't have buses everywhere

But on the other hand they have had a bus pass a bus stop close by for donkey years, do you blame them? Hardly an encouragement for using the bus in the future, post covid restrictions.

I'm in the same boat with the number 2 where I am, but it's only a 5 min walk to the nearest Nx bus stop!

I would be very surprised if the services that have seen the changes are restored post COVID. The network Chaserider inherited hasn't been viable for years so changes would have needed to be made at some point.

Why would D and G want to buy an economic basket case in the middle of a pandemic thats ultimately gonna lose them money? I dont get it. Someone posted on fb that the new General Manager walked out after 1 week. Not sure how true that is

He left the business 1 week before the 9th January handover date.
