Paper Timetables
(03 Jan 2023, 5:07 pm)DeltaMan See, I don't agree. At the risk of sounding like Roger French, I think they are essential as part of a package.
I know of two companies than went to a uni open day. One took a proper timetable and the other took a piece of paper with a QR code to a link (which didn't work). I can tell you the bin was full of the QR codes and the timetable booklet were exhausted (and not binned).
It is also a drop in the ocean compared to the overall turnover of a medium to large bus companny. It's certainly not the timetable leaflets fault if an operator can't schedule it's services properly.
Of course, they are the first thing a bean counter looks at when trying to save some money when said service changes are a disaster.
