In that case, All buses on the QBP would fail as none have "internal branding". an A4 piece of paper telling you about ticket validity is not the same thing! Nor is a window sticker by the door on stagecoach vehicles

There are many buses such as arriva's 3030 with no working side or rear LED's scince new which is often used on the 10B.

Apart from the ticketing arangements, a QBP is pointless and the passengers tend not to care aslong as they get where they want to at an affordable price, clearly Arriva and Stagecoach don't either, a bus is a bus it seems

From the wording of that section, I'd actually have thought that any bus with those stickers or an A4 sheet of paper would technically qualify or could at least be justified given the clause regarding any effect something larger may have on advertising revenue.

Just found out arriva will still operate the 76 on mon-fri daytimes but the evening and weekend service has gone out to tender will be interesting to see who gets it! The daytime service and route 75 are having route and timetable changes as well. All these changes come into effect in april.

Not the right thread, I know, but there was a notice in Commander 2602 today about fare increases from this Sunday.
Single increases to £2.10
Day ticket to £4
Weekly to £15
4 weekly to £52
Hope this is of some use

Yes, there is actually a thread open about bus fares that was started after a notice was seen on a bus.
