Disruptions and driver shortages
Disruptions and driver shortages
Are these disruptions caused solely by driver shortages? Or is it a lack of working buses?
Across the three main operators I would say probably a combination of the two, but mainly the lack of drivers.
This has been a problem for some time now, more than enough time to to solve it if it was an attractive job to go into as recruitment and retention wouldn’t be a problem.
The operators need to return to basics. And if it means working together to provide services that get people from a to b when they want to travel then that is what they should do.
