@BeeNetwork Just to clarify.. it says I can use service for example Hazel Grove to Manchester Piccadilly, can I not use the train going from Manchester Piccadilly to Hazel Grove?
@AndyBurnhamGM@BeeNetwork 2/2 Or, since some people keeps saying we should be same as London, then people who are 60 and over are eligible for Older Person’s Travel Card but will cost £35 to apply for one, and £20 for annual address check, and lift the restriction on buses.
@AndyBurnhamGM@BeeNetwork 1/2 Personally, just my opinion, either move the restriction to 08:45 as students should be in college /school by then, and workers (if they start at 9), and pay concession fare £1/50p before 08:45 for term time, and lift the restriction when it’s holiday term.
@AndyBurnhamGM Just my opinion.. should keep the restrictions on and moved it to 08:45 - students should be in school/ college by then, and same with workers (if they start at 9). I’m not sure what the fare for 60+ before 09:30, I’ve been told it’s £1 or £2 - maybe reduce the fare to 50p?
@brianw2013@AndyBurnhamGM They need to extend the trial to end of September - even on the bee network site it says “The trial is being held to look at the impact of lifting the 9.30am restriction on peak bus services and those shortly after 9.30am”
@maurice_1960@AndyBurnhamGM Exactly! I get the bus to work in the morning - The roads are quiet, and there’s nearly half the people using the bus. The buses have been on time getting to my destination and even arrived early.
@TheBoltonNews@BeeNetwork@AndyBurnhamGM Why do a trial in August? It’s the school holidays now - School and college kids are off, and the roads are a bliss at the moment. Surely, this trial should include September (school term) to see if it does have any impact on bus services at peak time
@AndyBurnhamGM Personally, I think the 9.30am restriction should move to 9am, and during school holidays as the road is quieter, it should be completely removed.
@dodger0703@BeeNetwork I don’t have issue with male staff coming and cleaning in the toilets while I’m in… it would be nice if there was a warning he’s coming in to clean/ check as the lock in the toilet I was using was not working properly.
@BeeNetwork bloody heck.. I know toilets need cleaning but had a male staff come in female toilets (Ashton bus station)… just as I came out of a cubicle a staff came out from the next cubicle from me, and it does help when all the lock are either broke or not working!
@BeeNetwork Your staff should have asked before he came in if anyone was in, I thought it was a member of a public until I heard the cubicle door opening and closing one by one that I realised it was a staff and I had to get up quick!
@BeeNetwork hey, I waited at the Huddersfield Rd/ Heywood St stop, your 350 had a sign on front saying “not in service”, but went straight passed the bus stop and had passengers on the bus! This is not on!
