(03 Jun 2014, 3:36 pm)NEBCD Malarkey The 96 will more likely be Evening Operation only with the exception of Sunday, Got to question what Vehicles GCT will use on the above Services, As 7-12 Seater Taxis are not suitable for the Majority of these Services.

(03 Jun 2014, 3:36 pm)Tom Exactly what I was thinking!!!
Certinaly not suitable for the R3 as it gets busy.

(03 Jun 2014, 3:41 pm)NEBCD Malarkey Bloody Hell Tom, that was a quick reply. The 96/515 and 558 along with the R3 are not suitable at all, here is hoping they have New Vehicles coming in for those Contracts which cope with Passenger Demand, and they'll need somewhere to store them also.

(03 Jun 2014, 3:43 pm)Tom It's a bit idiotic if they put the van style buses on the as people will be left behind

(03 Jun 2014, 3:51 pm)NEBCD Malarkey I don't know what is more idiotic though, the fact GCT Bid for these Contracts and Won, or the fact Nexus have ignored that there fleet is unsuitable and doesn't meet Contract Requirements, whereas other Companies do have the Vehicles to meet Contract Requirements and may of Bid slightly less than GCT.

(03 Jun 2014, 3:54 pm)Tom That's what irritates me - same goes with Compass, why do they award companies that don't follow the requirements of the contract? Surely Compass sending out a minibus out on the 73 is just as bad as GCT using minibuses on these services? Thing is, GCT were fined the most out of ALL of the independent operators. A bit worrying if Nexus don't care...

(03 Jun 2014, 4:21 pm)tyresmoke Do you not think the contracts all state the minimum capacity needed?

(03 Jun 2014, 4:21 pm)tyresmoke Do you not think the contracts all state the minimum capacity needed? I would be expecting some dealer stock vehicles to turn up - some E200s or Solos. They'll need to be a similar size to what is currently used ie around 30 seaters (think they're capacity 47 contracts)

(03 Jun 2014, 4:53 pm)citaro5284 Of course, they could have put in a non-conforming tender at a reduced price to win the contract. I believe Nexus accept them regularly.
(03 Jun 2014, 4:55 pm)NEBCD Malarkey If that does happen then that's fine as they'd be meeting the Requirements of the Contract, But I can still a Taxibus turning up on some of these Services.

(04 Jun 2014, 1:59 pm)NEBCD Malarkey Is anyone else thinking GCT maybe inheriting the Vehicles from Compass Community Transport, as they have pretty much cancelled all there contracts minus the 79 from what I can recall, and GCT have won all there Contracts that they did have.

(04 Jun 2014, 3:51 pm)aureolin I honestly think that they've just submitted a cheaper bid at lower spec. It is concerning that Nexus seem to be placing all their eggs in one basket though.
As for the 37. Will be interesting to see if GNE retaliate again by putting the 137 on for the peak runs.
