Andreos might take back his initial compliment knowing that it isn’t a commercial venture from the operator!

I think I mentioned a good few weeks back that there was a push to get this route set up. Said something along the lines of 'operators complaining that numbers were down, but then not taking up the opportunity to shift hundreds of people to and from work'.
The timetable clearly states its funded too.
Not sure why I would need to take back my initial complement about a bus service operating between a major source of employment and various housing estates where those employees work
Granted it's a shame that the taxpayer is having to prop it up, but it's a start and I'd hope it would lead to much more. Maybe even giving operators the kick up the backside they need.
The penny may drop there's more to serving town centres that are dying on their feet...
