By law, Stagecoach are prohibited from running services at a loss (1984 Transport Act) so they are trying to run buses where there is sufficient demand to cover their costs, hence some of the convoluted routes proposed. I was amused by a letter in the Dover Express where someone complained that there will be a 2 hour gap in the 91 - has he looked at the current 91 timetable?
It seems some people are choosing to ignore Lew's post about the law. It is illegal to run a bus service at a loss, people would be better off lobbying to change the law rather than having a pop at Stagecoach who are operating within the law.
Still, as I keep saying, facts are irrelevant to some on here.
