bus app

 It was not a nice day to hang around for a bus yesterday it was raining but its what I had to do, the bus was late,  I looked on the bus service app and the bus seemed to be being held up at its starting point in the next town, or maybe the app was playing up I was not sure as I have not really tested the app yet.  There were other people waiting for the bus so at least I knew it had not gone unless it had gone early which is a rare occurrence thankfully On the app the bus seemed to move again and then it was held up so I was still not sure if there was a bus coming or not then it moved again so I began to think there was bus on its way and it arrived, I told the others it was on its way, in the meantime we were all getting wet, apparentlty the bus had been held up by a broken down old steam train which had brokon down on the main road, the things should not be crossing the main road really as they are in danger of breaking down all the time due to their age and can be d...

timetable not right

 The people who are trying to organise this bus service which is suppose to start on Monday could not organise a piss up in a brewery, I was looking at the leaflet yesterday when I was a bit bored, the information with the time table on it and I noticed the map was wrong, the had put the village of Gellilydan as be down on the route where they really should have put Maentwrog, even after having two extra years to get things right they are still fucking things up. I also heard that the new service is not serving the far end of Blaenau Ffestiniog which is sad really as or wrong as there has been a bus serving that part of town for ever its not right to expect people to wall all the way from the other end of town in the bad weather, what will happne is that they will say the numbers are down who ues the bus and then they will stop the service, apparently its something to do with the timings I guess they are blaming the 20 mph speed limit that Labour in Wales have put in I am not sure...

T22 Blaenau ffestiniog to Porthmadog bus fiasco

  A bus service was introduced round here in 2021 to accommodate the lockdown, before the lockdwon there was an hourly service here which got rudeced to nearly nothing in the first lockdown and then some buses were added, which is where we are today a skeleton service which is in place a long time after any lockdown was in in place.  This service hampeers people's ability to move around especially during the evening when the schedule stops very early which obviously hampers business. There was suppose to be a new bus service starting 19 months to take the place of the lockdown schedule but due to issues such as nimbyism and other things it is yet to start I rang today for a starting date nothing was forthcoming so this service may or may not start in the future there was not even a rough idea of when this fiasco of the introduction of this service was going end. The pavement parking in the village here has gone nuts since the pandemic and I think this is as a result of the shi...
