(14 Mar 2016, 5:51 am)Dan Stagecoach mightn't see the commercial opportunity in running the service (based on their knowledge of passenger numbers and trends), however other operators might.
Depending on running times of the current commercially-operated 5 service, it may mean that they have to have a bus sitting around in the City Centre for 25 minutes, now that it won't head shoot off down to The Docks.
This would then impact on how much profit Stagecoach makes, as they have a bus and driver being unproductive for a long period of time.
