I think that has been answered in the news already. 392 applications in a week was the news story

Okay, that is good news.

New drivers will be on what top rate drivers were on before November 2022 £13.70ish which is very good news for retention, gives us older drivers hope normal service can resume, last 18 months been a joke with the lack of drivers majority left for the trucks, it was no fun being informed you got no relief with a bus full of passengers and it was a daily thing for most drivers.
How could it be right new driver gets £11.80 an hour with all that responsability , etc then you have supermarket staff getting £12 an hour etc for stacking shelves.

David Bradford sent an email out to drivers saying the lack of rest room facilities at relief points will be looked at again, fingers crossed. Great many things on the to do list lets see what happens.

NX website is saying 4, 5, the two  6s, 28, 51, 59, 87, 97, 529, X4, X21 will run on the morning of the 26th March. Not sure whether that will change or normal service starts Monday?
