(09 Dec 2022, 1:03 pm)Thomas12 wrote Not sure if it is directly related to the service issues, but apparently GNE and Arriva are going to introduce joint ticketing on the Coast Road - I don't have exact details of what this will entail.
Hmmm.......unless it will be only on the common section between Coast Road / Station Road and Newcastle?

If that was the case, Arriva wouldn't have any capacity issues with the 306/308 running every 20 mins each and the 306 pulled out of Battle Hill.

That alone would save a PVR of 4x and based on 3 cycles per bus between 6am and 6-7pm, (BLY > NCL > TYN/WB > NCL > BLY) would free around 12 drivers if not a few more.

Would be a win-win as the revenue depending on the agreement would be shared for the common sections, GNE get full control of Battle Hill and ANE still keep their unique parts and aren't hugely disadvantaged dropping frequency.
