It may be good, may be bad. It won't suit everyone but everyone has to remember that Arriva, as a commercial enterprise can only deliver what it can from the revenue it receives. Even now you ride certain services and feel that it's running at a loss and dependant, on the income across the day. I'm no financial wizard but if I were in business and not making money I'd be looking at changes.
