I work every Sunday but start at 730am when most GNE buses are tucket up in the garage so on that day i'd have to use the car.. I could use it when the football is back up and running but that I would need a network all zone pass which i believe is about £90 a month?
it might be to you but not to me or the many thousands of punters who've deserted the bus over the last several years.
That's why I said it totally depends on your commute.
For me, the price of the monthly ticket is worth it. In fact, as I'm under 25, it's actually cheaper for me to but a day ticket than a single for the X21!
Not sure on the Network One as I travel outside of T&W.
I think I'll probably end up going back to paying the £95 a month for an all zone since I don't like the idea of relying on my phone for a ticket, but that means sacrificing the 5-25 ticket.
As I've also said before, we need to stop pretending that Sunday is a 'special' day anymore. It's not!
The reason buses don't run early or late on a Sunday is because shops are open, so the first thing to do would be to get rid of the Sunday trading act, then there's no excuse!
My mother works night shift on a Sunday, but she has to drive because there's no bus. A lot of people who she works with on a Friday night can't work the Sundays because they physically can't get there.
