@EE Tried that too, got nowhere with that

@ultimatedoris Hi Linda. When you call 150 go through option 2, and you can choose the correct option to speak with one of our guides.

@EE , I had an email about my broadband contract coming to an end in April, telling me to call 150 to speak to someone about a deal, but every time I call 150, they send me a text to do it via message - can I not just talk to human anymore?

@KarlFreeman23 @FirstBSA The route is being assessed as we speak

@FirstBSA D2 suspended indefinitely I.e. for the remainder of today?

@Charlotterose17 @FirstBSA It’s having enough single deckers to use that’s the problem

@FirstBSA Will single deckers be able to pass through?

@lukerbio @FirstBSA From oldland common it will divert via Kenilworth Road, to the willsbridge roundabout, into keynsham, and saltford and newbridge road.

@D_man1965 @FirstBSA Yes it will

@FirstBSA Will the 19 still service Oldland and Cadbury Heath?

@jjdenton77 @Lewis_7592 @liv_rayment I’ve done that several times, or I give them a change ticket - they soon change their minds then 🤣

@Lewis_7592 @liv_rayment I did once have a kid give me a £20 note for a fare of £2 or less… unfortunately for him, I had no notes, so I told him I was low on £1 coins - and I made sure a good few quid of his change made up of 10p, 20p and 50p coins. Funnily enough, he’s never done it since… 😈

“Can I get on for free” “….why?” “I’ve lost my bus pass” “Where do you live” “Town” *sigh* “that’s a 5 minute walk from here” “Yea but this is quicker” Kids will make any excuse not to walk these days😭

@liv_rayment I’m so glad it’s not just me that thought this 🤦‍♀️🤣

Rest every 2 hours but you can drive a truck or bus/coach for 4.5 hours before you need to stop…😅

@Leighlines @dao2407 @bathnesld @Wera_Hobhouse @FreeBathStreets Which bus would you like?

@dao2407 @bathnesld @Wera_Hobhouse @FreeBathStreets Find the bus.

Welcome to Bath! One empty bus lane and one gridlocked mess crawling into the city. Well done @bathnesld @Wera_Hobhouse squeezing us onto fewer roads is a disaster for business and residents. @FreeBathStreets

@Oyka1 @Leighlines @cashandcarrots @bathnesld @Wera_Hobhouse @FreeBathStreets There is at least 4 services that use that road/bus lane - 3 of them are every 20 minutes or so and 1 every hour

@Leighlines @cashandcarrots @bathnesld @Wera_Hobhouse @FreeBathStreets Ah, bus lane but no bus service. Now that IS stupid

@liambhelm @FirstBSA Fair enough, sorry for the confusion

@liambhelm @FirstBSA Just looking on the tracking, it looks like it’s having issues of some sort getting out of bath

@liambhelm @FirstBSA No problem

@liambhelm @FirstBSA No problem, keep an eye on Bustimes.org for tracking it, but if I get an update, I’ll update this for you

@jopijedd @FirstBSA I believe I read somewhere the 522 is only serving as far as Keynsham, but I may be mistaken

@FirstBSA Pretty poor showing when your depot in Bristol is running 522 without a problem that serves the same area. As always, the Radstock services are the first to be abandoned by Wells depot.

@vix1305 Oh I completely agree, our ticketer system needs a damn good overall - even a sledgehammer wouldn’t cure it 🤦‍♀️🤣

@ultimatedoris I appreciate that we are lucky to have them, and they’ve just spent god knows how much replacing them to a ‘better’ system which is actually worse - that’s when they work. But if equipment is provided it should work!

Sometimes you feel very vulnerable as a bus driver. We have a radio system that’s a bit hit and miss - that’s working or getting someone to answer it. Today I had the later, but when I complained the controller was more concerned I swore (not at him) than the issue I faced.
