Is the ticket acceptance between operators still in place now the emergency timetables are no longer in place?
I would think there's be an announcement if they weren't anymore
(01 Jun 2020, 6:19 pm)Michael Its still in place.Do we know how long it's going to remain in place?
(01 Jun 2020, 7:07 pm)streetdeckfan Do we know how long it's going to remain in place?
The original announcement gave the impression that it would only be in place when they are running to emergency timetables.

Was on the GNE website today, I must say the update is fantastic. I was just looking at the Cobalt & Coast timetables, and I was really impressed by the frequency levels among those three routes. Really positive to see it retaining a high frequency throughout the day. GNE really lead the way up here..

Really positive to see it retaining a high frequency throughout the day. GNE really lead the way up here..The Cobalt & Coast routes will be in a strong position going forward. Arriva will no doubt pull the X6 (most routes & connections available with GNE / Stagecoach) and Stagecoach may even scale back the 1 & 22.
(03 Jun 2020, 6:55 pm)Storx I have to disagree here, the X21 isn't a flagship route (profit wise) unlike the X9/X10. it just got new buses as the old ones we're knackered. It definitely doesn't deserve new buses again, the fact is can't hold a night service shows that it isn't one of the most profitable services. Plus the X9/X10 is a totally different route to the X21 and they're only getting replacements as they're wrecked from putting a city bus up and down a 70mph road all day. The X30/31/45/46/47 deserve new buses for once and are arguably more important routes than the X21 which have always generally had new buses on especially the Red Kite's but are getting on a bit now.I'd have to disagree about the X21.Whilst it was initially launched as a supplementary route, usage has grown to an extent now that it could be considered as a major route. Ok in the short term, GNE have had to scale back the frequency as well as the later journeys (X30 & X70 late journeys also affected so not just an X21 problem). I think going forward that if demand returns, perhaps a 20 minute frequency may be suitable with a 20/40 split to W.Auckland.

Martjin Gilbert on his latest live stream has said next set of changes is probables gonna be around the start of July although he didn't say what they were, i would imagine this is likely to be the services which have temporary dropped in frequency, evening and weekend timetables back to normal - and any NEXUS contract changes.
