As short-sighted as it may seem, perhaps a vision of further reducing their property portfolio as we head towards NE-wide franchising?
I'd assume it's more they don't want to increase their PVR more than anything. Since the closures on the Central Motorway, the traffic has got much worse, and unless they cut the timetable, they need more buses running (or alternatively merge something like the X39 in so they save time).
