Non-UK Bus Operations
News, debate and discussion on Bus Operations outside of the UK
"The LibertyBus service in Jersey is here to keep you on the move – whether you’re commuting to work, visiting the Island, going shopping or just getting out and about. Your LibertyBus service is delivered by CT Plus Jersey under contract to – and in partnership with – the Transport and Technical Services Department at the States of Jersey." Currently, LibertyBus staff members are on strike. It is rumoured that this is as a result of another member of staff being dismissed and also about changes to shift patterns and working practices. A report on the BBC is given here, while further information is displayed on the operator's website here and here. |

RE: Arriva Malta
I saw an advert the other day, for 6 month driving vacancies out there.
It seems there are issues, not just related to vehicles... A big organisation coming onto Malta and re-writing the whole industry on the Island, was bound to cause issues and problems. 'Illegitimis non carborundum'

RE: Arriva Malta
True, i dont know whos *smart* idea it was to use bendies on a small island in the first place, i would gladly swap some bendies with some of the Pulsars at Arriva St Helens Depot, 10A route needs the extra seats and the only change you need to do to the route is make it go around the back of the Wilkos in St Helens, an extra minute in the Timetable.
