Cuts everywhere, lack of investment, second hand unrefurbished buses which are 14 year old for frontline work etc. It's in a poor shape.
The Sunderland Deptford fleet, in particular, is in poor shape. ULEZ or not and Riverside isn't much better recently apart from the 21/X21 which constantly gets investment.
There are still a few which needs to return to the pre-reduced frequency. However I do agree on the lack of investments, I mean I saw Dan talking about dedicated school buses, but the E400 end up all over like literally everywhere.
But I do agree GNEs fleet is massively aging and something hast to be done urgently about it
