@peterdownie636 @on_lothianbuses How can you be late if the bus is early, or waiting until it’s on time? 😂 Drivers aren’t allowed to run buses early through timing points, so it is kind of necessary they wait.

@on_lothianbuses 47B very poor service this morning. Totally unnecessary stopping to delay passengers because the bus was running early. 99% of passengers getting on east of Princes Street are going to the city centre not Penicuik. Use some common sense and get people to work

@EnvokenK @on_lothianbuses Pardon? What part of any of that made sense to you whilst typing it? Admit it, you had no clue what you were talking about, and made yourself look silly, now you’re trying to be funny… and failing miserably x

@GScott48548 @on_lothianbuses Gary, you couldn’t point out the A1 exit, let alone facts. All that chat - driving the bus seems optional extra. Podcast coming next, yeah? 😅😅😅😅

@on_lothianbuses Morning! Is this some kind of joke with the X4 and 44 services? Why is the X4 always overcrowded while the 44 runs nearly empty between Wallyford and Musselburgh? People are left standing on a bus doing 70 mph on the A1. What’s the logic behind this?

@EnvokenK @on_lothianbuses Nah Envoken. The facts are, you said council funded buses. I pointed out it was the other way round. Funny you look a little silly now, isn’t it Envoken? You must be used to it x

@GScott48548 @on_lothianbuses Gary mate, less TED Talk, more accelerator. The facts are your buses are on their own timezone. Your timetable’s more of a suggestion, isn’t it Gary?

@LiamRudden @on_lothianbuses They were, because they are every night. Just because no one was at the stops on chambers st. GIV bridge, and the mound doesn’t mean the driver knows that from south bridge. Drivers done the right thing not missing stops. Move on Liam x

Just done a 16 minutes diversion to get back to where I stared with @on_lothianbuses and continue onto another diversion. Route planner needs replaced; ridiculous trip up and down the Royal Mile. Highlights Lothian’s indifference to customer service.

@BrettHerriot @on_lothianbuses The delays don’t happen between city centre and Clovie. They happen at Gilmerton-Dobbies. Then the new 20mph in Midlothian. I’m not saying cut off Midlothian. Have an interchange at Gilmerton. Brilliant idea. You seem such a big fan of them, make them work for you instead.

@GScott48548 @on_lothianbuses Even though the majority of the delays happen between the city centre and clovenstone. Your idea to cut off Midlothian is ridiculous. Interchanges do work, clearly what isn’t working is what we currently have!

@on_lothianbuses the service 3 today is shameful!!! Not one running anywhere near timetable. Clearly one or two have broken down and blaming congestion isnt enough! Time the route was looked at instead of raising fares!

@EnvokenK @on_lothianbuses I’m not arguing with you. Just pointing out the flaw in your logic. That being that, the council nets far more from their bus company than it spends on tendered routes. Sorry you don’t like facts x

@BrettHerriot @on_lothianbuses That will improve it. Gilmerton to Clovie will stop it getting delayed at A7 and in Dalkeith. Sorted. Interchanges require more buses to operate. It’s almost like transport operators know best. I don’t pretend to know what’s best in retail, I’ll leave that to those who know.

@LiamRudden @on_lothianbuses It is a nightly occurrence but the first bus driver, approaching the closure, know if it’s went on a minute early. The stops concerned are closed during this time, however there is extra stops in use on diversion.

@GScott48548 @on_lothianbuses No, all the diversion signs were already placed, apparently it’s a nightly occurrence now due to bridge work. Need to just close the stops concerned.

@EnvokenK @on_lothianbuses DVSA set capacity for buses and their safety. Pretty sure there’s been less incidents on NSL dual carriageways, than on city centres, causing injury to standing passengers. But facts you know.

@EnvokenK @on_lothianbuses The 18 and the 400 are exactly the same route. The 18 is only funded for journeys after 1800 and prior to 0700. Can you tell us how much the council pays for their tendered routes, of which two are done by HCL, compared to the dividend they receive from LB?

@inquisitor111 @on_lothianbuses You got Lothian Buses’ funding wrong and contradicted yourself on the 400—clearly not commercial but council-funded. Makes me wonder what else you’re getting wrong. Paid by LB? 🤔

@calummiller @on_lothianbuses Have you got a similar graph for how these services are funded? For instance TFL buses heavily subsidised by underground, or what portion of Manchester council tax pays for Manchester buses Vs edinburgh/mid/east/west Lothian?

@M4rtyman @Aaronedin @on_lothianbuses This way it only misses two normal stops instead of four. 90 Deg is fine, buses manage fine at the foot of the walk, top of Easter road, riccarton and ingliston p&r's., all manageable daily.

@boabeto75 @J1mb0wW @rileyburnettFFC Imagine his arm isn't in it's natural position in front of him, it hits his chest. His hand/arm hasn't affected the outcome. He's not make himself bigger. He's not denied a goal. If his arm is behind him and it hits his arm, it's a penalty. Not difficult

@J1mb0wW @rileyburnettFFC My god Grow some integrity . A clear penalty. Imagine this against hearts at Celtic park🤣 You would be saying the exact opposite. Sometimes its ok to be honest. We all need fair refereeing; next time it will be against you.

Refereeing in this country is a joke. No red card, no penalty. How many mistakes are VAR going to make before these idiots realise there are CLEAR issues???

@ThomasShel28428 @GM1872_ @rileyburnettFFC No. Arm over your stomach when the ball hits you, isn't a handball. He's not making himself bigger. If his hand isn't there, it's hitting him. He's not denied a goal or a goal scoring opportunity. It's common sense.

@EnvokenK @on_lothianbuses Envoken doesn't understand that tweeting about it will ensure a delayed response, where as alerting the driver can stop straight away and either talk to the people or alert the control room who can in turn call the police. Don't be like Envoken.

@on_lothianbuses Well he was fully aware of what was going on. Unless he had hearing impairment. Its a bit odd that Lothian B. passes the responsibility of keeping an acceptable environment on the buses onto the drivers. You got cameras installed. Use it fgs

@johnrobson87 @on_lothianbuses @edintravel They're all still diverted going towards ocean terminal. As you're picture shows, two buses will struggle to pass eachother. 35 and 36 going the shore towards town. 16 uses longer buses, so can't currently use the shore with the ongoing works and fencing.

@on_lothianbuses The 35 & 36 are using the Shore / Henderson Street. So why not the 16? That’s a 35 & 36 just now so the diversion map shared is incorrect. @edintravel can you clarify the status of this “closure”? Thanks

Hi @on_lothianbuses can I check if service 16 and 36 are diverted from the Shore please? Looks like one is and one isn’t? Can I check that is correct and why that is the case. Thanks
