It looks like it was designed in Notepad!

Shockingly bad, the Co-Op Advert on Lothian Buses 569 is also not very good - https://www.flickr.com/photos/km_edinburgh/52228326745/

Although it’s not actually mentioned within the article, the only section of the route which they will operate as Autonomous Vehicles will be along the Forth Road Bridge - on the public roads between Edinburgh Park Interchange and the Forth Bridge Access Road (and eventually from Ferrytoll into Dunfermline), the driver will drive the vehicle as normal.

Alex Hornby has became McGills Managing Director. 

I'm surprised he lasted at TransDev this long I heard they wanted rid of his ASAP.

It always did amaze me how he could afford all of those holidays/research trips.
Now he's been accused of fiddling and getting Transdev to pay for the trips. 

I wonder if Stenning and other 10%'ers are getting on the next Lumo train north?

It feels to me like a bit of a hot potato that no one wants to take commercial risk on, whilst still applying the technique of one-upmanship on the Local Authority and Scottish Government, with much talk of franchising still looming.

I'd love to be proven wrong, but I can't see this lasting beyond 6 to 12 months.
