The parish council has been trying to persuade Stagecoach to make the stop opposite the Waggon and Horses mandatory so that all potential passengers can make use of the bus shelter rather than at least one of them having to stand out in all weathers to flag down the bus. In this month’s agenda (Adobe/PDF, 215KB) they report their lack of success. Mr Norwell, commercial director, has confirmed that all stops are request stops. If we are aware that buses have not stopped when requested we should pass the details on to Martin Musther, Assistant Operations Manager.
