However, I'm dissapointed to see nothing is being done about the 82/82A's reliability....
I use it quite a bit (mainly between Birtley and the Galleries) and looking in from the outside it appears there is very little slack in the timetable.
Whilst traffic shouldn't be much of an issue out of peaks and it is very rare I see delays caused by traffic whilst using it - it seems to take just a few passengers more than normal, for it to fall behind.
The road network it uses and the lack of faster roads means there is very little room for a heavy foot to help get back on time.
