Cause it ain’t a priority to the plp. It don’t make em any money. But it sad cause they continue to build a unnessary bus shelter near the foot ball field on palmetto road. I guess they are just waiting for somebody to get hurt like a school kid. PLP and w&E get ya act together

While on the subject of buses, over 2 weeks ago the bus shelter opposite the Aquarium was struck and damaged. Part of the roof was also dislodged. It is now spay painted “Keep Out” with some cones and tape as well as warning. It looks a mess. As part of the visitor infrastructure it is a disgrace it has not been repaired as a matter of urgency. W & E, where are you?

OK. Buses average age is 11 years, industry normal life is 7 years. Some are over 20 years. We’e in 2017. Seems clear the lack of investment was prior to 2012. Welcome back to the problem.

Who said it was when the Bus was parked at the Garage? I’ve gotten onto busses where the previous passenger left a window open or cracked and the seats are soaked…So who really is thinking here?

The silly buses were ordered by the previous PLP era. As regard to Robains message. Lies..yet again. Usual PLP nonsence.

“Also, buses with fabric seats are susceptible to spillage of drinks or to rainwater when windows are left open. Something as simple as wet seats can put a bus out of service. The new buses will not have fabric seats. This is possibly less comfortable but it will be easier to keep the buses clean and dry.”

It’s called CLOSING the windows after each and every shift. Not that hard lmfao….

Why haven’t seats that came unglued screwed into place. Metal strips on the rubber mats at the back of the buses coming up and not being repaired causing persons to trip. Four buses ordered and how many new drivers hired in 2017. I trust the new buses are better than those silly buses with the middle doors and front side seating. And where are the Pink mini-buses that somehow disappeared. These can be put to use on the St. David’s,Spanish Point and Pond Hill and maybe Ord Road runs from 10am until 3pm.
