RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
Really? From the comments I regularly hear from passengers, I'd disagree! Even if a bus is a bus, the QBPs supposedly offer the passenger more than that. 'Combined, convenient, frequent' services. The QBP has caused a deterioration in frequency for the 10/A services which I use and I know it's been a poor show across other routes too. Merseytravel also promise 'modern' vehicles with the insinuation, you'd have thought anyway, of sufficient capacity. Even if a 'bus is a bus' passengers know when they've got a crap one and when they're being hard done by as far as capacity is concerned. The QBPs are probably more applicable to the everyday passenger than anything else regularly discussed on the forum due to the laughable and ludicrous manor in which Merseytravel has promoted and conducted them thus far.
