HeadingNorth Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Does this come with the usual disclaimer of "other changes may yet be announced" - or has the deadline date for announcing any services you intend to tinker with, passed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alternageek Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Disappointed the Tesco service has been withdrawn, but it probably would have been more popular if went through the weekend and evenings as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alternageek Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Why? Hardly anybody used it! More people would have used it if they knew about it or it ran longer. Only running from, say, 9.45am-2.45pm in my area really isnt a way to get business drummed up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The deadline is somewhat fluid as the PTE can poke their noses in up till the last minute. This is in case the bus companies have not screwed up, they can come in and do it on their behalf.

tbtc Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 FIRST SY = Timetable changes: x4/x5/x6 - x14/x15 Bear in mind that VOSA registrations tend to show out of date information - such as the X6 and X15 which were withdrawn a while ago - there's always a lot of guesswork/speculation at this stage, before we know the details (not having a go, just trying to put things in context) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
