X315CBT was on the 16/16A again today, I don't think the people of Hummersknot and Mowden like this bus as it has removable seats on the lower part of the bus and because the seats are removable it also has almost no handrails and stopping bells. Some were even asking when the pink bus would be back, the driver is hoping for Wednesday.

All week Scarlet Band have had someone on the 16/16A doing a survey relating to the service's future.
The questions were fairly standard and were something like:
How often do you use it.
What times do you use the service.
Where do you travel on the service.
What do you use the service for.
What would do if the service was reduced / withdrawn.
The funding the service was given from January 2013 is expected to run out in June.
Even though I am not a regular 16/16A passenger I filled in the survey.

Whilst not knocking either Jimmi for completing a survey or Scarlet Band for getting them produced; the fact he doesn't use the service often, and his response will potentially help form the outcome, is one of the flaws of sampling - touched on elsewhere, but specifically in the Passenger Focus thread.
On a more positive note, hopefully the responses do assist in securing the future of the service.

(10 Jan 2015, 6:02 pm)Jimmi I just hope the 16/16A continue as it would be a massive loss to alot of people including the elderly residents in Mowden and Hummersknot plus the school kids who use the 16A to get to school without this service they'd be faced with a long walk to school.
