(05 Feb 2020, 11:13 am)Dan It’s quite a complicated one in that the operators have to reach an agreement with the local authority to accept tickets. Usually the daytime operator has to pay for the privilege, I understand.

For something like this, the evening contracted work supplements the daytime work, so it may be in the daytime operators’ interests to reach this agreement.

Good news is that ticket acceptance has been agreed now for the 11 and 19. Contracts yet to be awarded for the evening 41s.

According to a driver the 11 is replacing the 41 - unsure if its just evenings / Sunday’s but i’m guessing why it’s not been awarded.

That's no suprise, although I have seen drivers from both LNER & Stagecoach do it on occasions, although they must think with the window or door being open it's legal...

I would advise reporting this to Nexus via their customer services department.

I really hope they can sort their maintenance out and employee some actual PSV mechanics. In London this would not be tolerated, there seems to be a sort of lackadaisical approach to bus services in the northeast.
