RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Ambassador - 03 Aug 2021 (03 Aug 2021, 8:48 am)GuyParkRoyal Price is not the only thing taken into account according to the invitation to tender. An extract from the notice issued by Nexus is shown below. Price is not the only criteria but it's the one we weight 99% of the decision against is what they mean. RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Train8261 - 06 Aug 2021 41A will be ran by GCT on Sunday and evening as expected Not seeing the new version of the little Pinks in Washington on there. Have go North East got that back full time RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - V514DFT - 06 Aug 2021 Urrrrrgh,flippin GCT,i wish GNE would take all the North Tyneside services back off them,hopefully in the future they will if the percent of passengers pick up,i still would of numbered the 41A 40,as thats what people in the area know it as Gateshead Central Taxis - cbma06 - 06 Aug 2021 (06 Aug 2021, 5:43 pm)V514DFT Urrrrrgh,flippin GCT,i wish GNE would take all the North Tyneside services back off them,hopefully in the future they will if the percent of passengers pick up,i still would of numbered the 41A 40,as thats what people in the area know it as The only way GNE to take back off them will be dig deep in the shareholders pockets while there are on there luxury yachts smoking Cuban cigars and fork out to run them commercially Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Andreos1 - 06 Aug 2021 (06 Aug 2021, 5:48 pm)cbma06 The only way GNE to take back off them will be dig deep in the shareholders pockets while there are on there luxury yachts smoking Cuban cigars and fork out to run them commercially Whey no, they can't be in two places at once. They're too busy to be asking shareholders for money. It's a better use of their time posing for photos at County Hall and running about with their begging bowl once the press pack have gone. If you look very closely at the photo outside County Hall, you may just see a pile of begging bowls in the luggage rack. Gateshead Central Taxis - cbma06 - 06 Aug 2021 (06 Aug 2021, 5:55 pm)Andreos1 Whey no, they can't be in two places at once. I noticed that the begging bowls were branded as well with shareholders bank account details on and you get a free day ticket only between Gateshead interchange and Newcastle city centre for Xmas day only Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - ThomasBooth123 - 09 Aug 2021 Gateshead Central Taxis now tracking on bus times RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - streetdeckfan - 09 Aug 2021 (09 Aug 2021, 8:51 am)ThomasBooth123 Gateshead Central Taxis now tracking on bus times Better late than never I suppose!

It's gonna be easier RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Adrian - 09 Aug 2021 (09 Aug 2021, 10:28 am)Train8261 Aye but now that there tracking. It's gonna be easier Well the solution to that is to run the contract as specified! RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - streetdeckfan - 09 Aug 2021 (09 Aug 2021, 10:28 am)Train8261 Aye but now that there tracking. It's gonna be easier Looks like they're going to have to start actually running services then, if everything is tracked then Nexus can see exactly what they're doing! RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Rapidsnap - 09 Aug 2021 Apparently according to a friend who sent in a complaint to Nexus about GCT early running, Nexus already had the ability to track them (apparently). Just that for some reason the info wasn't made public. RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Rapidsnap - 09 Aug 2021 Also noticed that they seem to have fleetnumbers, not sure if vehicles carry them though. 203 - SF65AFO - Fiat Ducato / Mellor Orion 208 - SJ17ZCX - Fiat Ducato / Mellor Orion 210 - YT63TNX - Fiat Ducato / Bluebird Orion 214 - SF14HAA - Fiat Ducato / Mellor Orion 218 - BF18YRX - Fiat Ducato / Mellor Orion 219 - SJ18USE - Fiat Ducato / Mellor Orion 221 - SG19WOA - Fiat Ducato / Mellor Orion 222 - SJ19PNK - Fiat Ducato / Mellor Orion 223 - SJ19PGE - Fiat Ducato / Mellor Orion 224 - SJ19PGF - Fiat Ducato / Mellor Orion 225 - LN20OPL - Mercedes Benz 516CDI Sprinter - Mellor Strata 227 - LN20OPK - Mercedes Benz 516CDI Sprinter - Mellor Strata 228 - LN20OPO - Mercedes Benz 516CDI Sprinter - Mellor Strata 229 - LO70KXB - Mercedes Benz 516CDI Sprinter - Mellor Strata 231 - LO70KXC - Mercedes Benz 516CDI Sprinter - Mellor Strata 308 - SK67FMY - Wright Streetlite (Wheel Forward) 309 - YJ18DLE - Optare Solo SR 311 - SK19EYH - Wright Streetlite (Door Forward) 312 - YX20OCF - ADL Enviro 200MMC 313 - YX20OCG - ADL Enviro 200MMC 314 - YX20OCH - ADL Enviro 200MMC 315 - YX20OCJ - ADL Enviro 200MMC 317 - YX20OCL - ADL Enviro 200MMC 318 - YX20OCM - ADL Enviro 200MMC 319 - YX20OCN - ADL Enviro 200MMC 320 - YX21RUA - ADL Enviro 200MMC 321 - YX21RUC - ADL Enviro 200MMC 322 - YX21RUH - ADL Enviro 200MMC 323 - YX21RUO - ADL Enviro 200MMC 324 - YX21RUJ - ADL Enviro 200MMC 413 - LX03BZB - Transbus Trident / Transbus ALX400 601 - NA65GYG - Renault Trafic 602 - NX13EJE - Renault Trafic 603 - NL66WZB - Renault Trafic 9994 - YX11AET - ADL Enviro 200 Dart 9995 - YX11AEG - ADL Enviro 200 Dart 9997 - YW68PBY - ADL Enviro 200MMC 9998 - YX18KUD - ADL Enviro 200 Dart The gaps in the fleetnumbers suggest there are other vehicles but not been active since they went live. RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Train8261 - 09 Aug 2021 Been told of a driver DLF is sitting in the yard and has been for a few days RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Thomas12 - 15 Aug 2021 The new tracking system is useful - waiting for the 41 in Wallsend and just realised it's already been... 7 minutes early. Makes me wonder if all of the times I've thought the service hasn't turned up is actually because they're so early. RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Adrian - 15 Aug 2021 (15 Aug 2021, 9:34 am)Thomas12 The new tracking system is useful - waiting for the 41 in Wallsend and just realised it's already been... 7 minutes early. Isn't it a good thing that you can now track that? Screen grab it and send it in to Nexus, as that is shocking.

Yes, that sounds like a good idea. Sorry if it has been discussed before, but do you know the best way to contact Nexus as there's multiple different emails that I have found on their website? RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Adrian - 15 Aug 2021 (15 Aug 2021, 12:23 pm)Thomas12 Yes, that sounds like a good idea. Try customerservices@nexus.org.uk They seem to have removed the options to contact online or via email from their website, sticking to telephone and post. I mean this is clearly the kind of forward thinking we're going to need for an enhanced partnership... |
