RE: First Manchester
So once again another example of drivers at Dukinfield doing what ever they want - does the depot manager have no authority?

What's the point in route branding the B9s at Dukinfield if lazy drivers will use them on other services because they carnt be bothered swapping vehicles.

the depot manager has little involvement in running after 6pm he goes to the pub (i know)
the allocator/shift controller decided it was easier because of late running and driving laws i.e 45 min break. the driver wouldnt have got to depot had break swapped over and got back in the time required because he was approx 15min late i think. this is a one off or rare occasion in this matter with dukis buses all over show at minute.


this will die down and tighten up once buses are branded. theyve already been told about this.

this is already being practiced on sundays now the b9s are here drivers now have to swap buses like they do m-sat. where before mid sept they kept the same buses from start of duty to end of duty with exc of 39/389`s
