It's a TNE ticket scheme with TNE re-imbursing operators.
Just needs TNE to reach agreement on reimbursement with the bus operators - and Metro, which is where the complication with introducing a Bus Service Improvement Plan ticket occurs, and is why it's been delayed again.
You’re saying like it’s silly that they want the ticket to be multi modal, but honestly I think it would be silly to introduce a bus only ticket. Ok, you can have a bus only multi operator ticket but if you live on South Shields Town Centre you have to get the 27 rather than the metro if you want the benefits of it. Once again operators kicking up a stink because they have to share a bit of a pot of money rather than trying to get people to use public transport as a whole.
