IMO, I don't see how they can do that on a 20 minute frequency for both services - the 309 still needs to be every 20 minutes during peak times as that's the all stopping Cobalt service.

I hope Arriva do bite back in retaliation and go back to a full 7-8 (or 15 minute each service) and full service evenings & Sundays including a 30 minute service each on the 306 & 308.

In fact, they could probably win over quite a few punters in Battle Hill if the 306 went back to every 15 minutes and running a more direct route missing High Farm. Every 10 minutes but stopping at every stop in High Farm vs every 15 minutes breezing through Selby Gardens.....it's a no brainer.
