If services like 43/44 etc are affected (and judging by Facebook they are struggling up the route) then surely some short reserve runs (especially if there's no scholars PVR) would make sense. If your losing mileage why not stick in some short runs. We've seen Chester do it with the Angel from Birtley numerous times
I think it's been a lot busier this year, and the works around Central Station certainly don't help. As much as it seems a token gesture, I guess the actual changes that can be made are limited. I'd assume the rotas for the next week have been long since planned, and it'd be difficult to stick short runs in this late in the day. Though I do admit they serve a purpose.
