Fare changes from Sunday 9th of February:

Considering that the size of the network is smaller than most cities and with now much reduced frequencies, I find £5.00 for an adult day rover quite shocking when you compare with other companies.
Surely the management must see that it's false logic to think that putting prices up and cutting services automatically means a better and/or more profitable business.
In the short term, they may well get more money, but it is clear the direction in which the company is going, and people are desperately searching for alternatives to bus travel (especially those on the 3/19/23/25 routes, which seem to be complained about endlessly).

Anyway, we'll just have to wait and see what the coming Network Review throws up, but I imagine that most of it will be more bad news.

To RSTurbo50, that's interesting news.
They did have a demonstrator Enviro for a while, and to me at least, I thought it was better than many of the other demonstrators (especially the Optare Tempo).
From talking to Stagecoach drivers though, I know that many drivers hate Enviro 200's because the cabs are tiny, but maybe things are different in the 300's (I've not heard any comments).

Some have said to me in the past things along the lines of, "Warrington would never get Enviros," but maybe that will be proven false soon!
