Guest busdriver1 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Service changes from January. SL1/1a Timetable revised to maintain Supertram connections reducing frequency Monday – Friday off peak and Saturdays from 10 to 12 minutes. When a 12 minute frequency operates 3 journeys per hour operate as SL1 and 2 as SL1a. Early evening frequency increased but late evening frequency (from 2048 Monday – Saturday and 1748 on Sundays) reduced to hourly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vwkittie Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Please explain somewhere else in the city, where a change from tram to bus is required to get home - and not through choice at that? I'd rather have a change than have the only option being a bus that takes forever, only runs every half an hour and often departs early/late meaning you're left with a 50 min wait at a cold bus stop with no shelter. A 5 min wait for a tram under a shelter is far preferable!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael_N Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 Well the results are in... Unsliven Bridge and Garden Village will retain their evening service, although the SL1 will be downgraded to a hourly service from the 28th January after 8:48pm Monday to Saturday and 5:48pm on Sundays. No changes really to the 57. So once again more cuts to the services around Stocksbridge, along with the recent fare increases to CityWide/TravelMaster tickets etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we thought First were bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choogling Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 its about time the old clipper service was re-introduced if they charged a fixed price of a couple of quid it would be cheaper than a taxi and might even break even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy C Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 So since Stagecoach have taken over the Stocksbridge service they have cut the evening frequency from 3 buses to town, to 1 as far as the tram. And we thought First were bad. The evening journeys on the 57 and SL1 is a tendered service run under contract to SYPTE as it doesnt sell enough tickets on those trips to be commercially viable. The service level is based on how far the subsidy stretches and what level of subsidy can be justified. Who operates it therefore doesn't make a lot of difference. ---------- Post added 18-01-2018 at 00:04 ---------- Well the results are in...
