Bank Holiday Services

What I'm saying is, bus drivers probably want to take bank holidays off, and would probably be pretty annoyed when they're told to work one; enhanced pay and extra holiday allowance in lieu sweetens the deal but there'll be a point the company won't be willing to give such extras. Demands for extra services will mean extra drivers on the road - drivers that may not be willing to work BHs. Yes you sign up to the job in the knowledge it'll involve some bank holiday work - but every bank holiday?
TV already run on reduced workforce on weekends and BHs (ever noticed the local news is very rarely more than about 10-15 minutes once per day on weekends? I'm sure all those extra journalists and technicians would love working weekends and bank holidays to put together 3 long news bulletins). Most shops also run reduced opening hours.
