They haven't even finished the original 939 times yet. Like they just did one and now there doing it again. Might as well just get rid of it

Is this in addition to the other proposal or instead of the original proposal?

[Unber43]

Wait so what will be left of the service

[Busu284]

From what I've seen. The original 939 consultation has closed but the result are still going. And today they have released another one

I have just looked at the existing timetable

Then checked the first consultation removed those buses

Then checked what was left (one journey a day in each direction) and the new consultation is to get rid of the remaining services

So in blunt terms it is to abolish the 939 service completely

Not necessarily - it depends on what decision is taken following the first consultation.

It looks like Nexus are consulting on changing/withdrawing almost every contract that carries few passengers as it comes up for renewal.
I suspect that whether they do withdraw the journey/service will depend on the tender prices received and hence the cost per passenger.
