Town’s Private Bus Company Losing Money
Two weeks into providing a new circular bus service for the town, Alex Voy of Central Coaches thinks he has made a big mistake.
“My bus is going round the town empty and I am very disappointed as following all the fuss about Arriva withdrawing services, I thought I would at least cover my costs.”
Alex is now losing money and has to give 8 weeks notice if he is forced to stop the service. and by the time the period of notice is finished he could be in serious financial trouble.
“Where are all those people who complained they could not get to the Town Centre?” asks Alex. “There were letters to Newton News thanking me for opening the new route yet very few people are using the bus and most times I am travelling round empty” said Alex.
