(22 Aug 2025, 8:45 pm)Retro Nero wrote Citaro artic. having a problem the other day in Sunderland  pulling out of Frederick Street into Borough Rd , a refuse truck and another bus having to reverse so the citaro could negotiate the turn .The 700 route obviously tight for the artic.

Amazed it managed to negotiate West/East Sunniside along with junction at Frederick Street/Athenaeum Street.

Citaro Artics are far to big for this route in terms of length, perfect for capacity and people moving. Think City Transport should use 5323 or find a Decker that is more suitable for the contract.

Ensign have shed loads of Buses for sale at the moment.
