Hmm. Here is a picture of
bus stop 45027893 Leeds eTap hotel.
Nice smart stop, kassel kerb, right outside a budget hotel (which is very comfortable, double bed, bathroom, etc etc), as the live departures link will testify, a good selection of services provided by
FirstGroup and
Arriva.
So why is there a black plastic bag over the flag?
The wording states:
STOP SUSPENDED
This bus stop is suspended due to a decision by Arriva not to serve it because of issues arising from the (illegible) and safety of this stop.
Passengers should use alternative stops at the bus station or the next stop on Black Bull Street.
Metro would like to apologise to passengers for any inconvenience caused.
What safety issues could be associated with driving off a layby bus stop?
Slight update from twitter.
ReplyDeleteArriva have confirmed that they don't use this stop and don't envisage this changing. They have also pledged to get their routes removed from JP/RTI as soon as possible.
First have advised that their route 74 serves this stop (their 28 is also listed).
Metro haven't made any comment about this issue yet.
