Seems like another who should be getting demoted has been promoted for reasons unknown. Nothing new though really.
It'll be interesting to see how iSquared deal with it as they aren't half inheriting a mess or even worse whether they're part of these decisions as there's not much going around to say they're experts at transport either.
From the little digging I did about iSquared, they do have a reputation for being quite savvy, bringing in people with knowledge to run things and obviously with the main aim to make a profit. But they are willing to invest to ensure that profit arrives.
I really hope this happens with Arriva, as I rely on them to get me to the pub. Non-alcohol nights out with the car just aren't as good. Parking near work in the centre of town is extortionate too, so prefer the £4 bus instead.
