oh and also there are plans to remove EU work from Ashington 24th May. Both X15 and X18 are going to be run under domestic rules, and split at Morpeth, Alnwick and Bamburgh. however they plan on running these under current route numbers all the way through. Drivers are NOT happy about this, especially when we should be getting extra work for summer, we are losing 3 lines of Rota. Many drivers believe this is going to be illegal as the route number is staying the same, and the same bus is running full route.
maybe someone can shed light on this as our union reps are non existent at the minute.
