Centrebus`s Darts (Leeds)

They seem to be parked up everywhere in town just abandoned for hours on end Seems like the favourite place to dump them is Vicar Lane.
Nearly every day there are two parked up for ages blocking the stops for us First buses to get in and drop off safely.
And on the subject of their shitty Darts,i followed on of their pride of the fleet Darts up the Chevin the other day (god knows what it was doing there) and it didn`t get above 33mph all the way.
It was frustrating because our X class buses can pull 50mph up there easily when there isn`t an orange slug in front of us.

The other week I saw a Goslow on Vicar Lane displaying a parking ticket. I think Centrebus are chronically short staffed, and its the case of no relief so dump bus! Perhaps it is time for the Police to get involved.. Abandoned vehicles..

They should go round there every day and ticket them then maybe they may stop dumping them there for hours on end.

I remember a few years back when I worked in Leeds, 6 buses were ticketed in 1 day by the Traffic Taliban. Most of them were on my bloody road too. Got sodding hammered all day!

Now due to the idiots in charge at Metro, the cowboys that are Centrebus can do no wrong in their eyes..Need First to get a few wheelclamps, and the town bollock scratchers shove a clamp on, each time they see a dumped Centrebus shed, and charge em £85 removal..

To be honest Centrebus should never have been awarded any contracts by Metro. Centrebus are just a living joke of a bus company!

I think good old Leyland Temple should have been awarded them..He is as mad as a box of frogs...

One of the f*ckin heaps of shit was dumped on the 5/18/FCB stop in town for ages. I went to Morley, then spen an hour there, and came back, and the f*ckin thing was still there!

Also just followed one with its high mount brake lights jammed on, and only 1 of its ordinary brake lights working!

That`s what i`m saying Bristol.
They are just dumped for hours on end and blocking stops making it dangerous for the services that use that stop to safely drop off and pick up passengers.
s
Something should be done

Bottle of flammable liquid and a match. Seriously.Or get the Inspectors at First to move them to somewhere like erm well...The River Aire...

One of there Scania omnicitys was broken down in the bus station a couple of days ago aswell.
Seems like things are going downhill for them fast.

I cannot wait for it all to blow up in Metro's face, and all First need to say is TOUGH SHIT, we aren't going to run them unless you pay us a decent amount of cash.

It's because the company is run by cretins. I tell anyone here, no matter how desperate you are for goodness sakes don't ever work for these arseholes, you'll regret it if you do!

Sounds like what Veoliarse Wales keep doing at Victoria Coach Station. Quite usual for one of their NatEx Jonckheeres to get dumped on the Green Line stands along Bullied Way for over a week!

They've caused chaos leaving their solos and other crap dumped for hours in a very tight, narrow and not very wide twisty steep hill (between houses) - among other troublesome places here in sunny south wales.

Oily rags & matches work better

shite????????????????

Get in one and park it in the centre of the road

I want First back on the 737, the buses had legroom, arrived ontime, oh and the drivers knew where to go.

I saw another scania with its bonnet open in Shipley.

Should send Centrebus back to Luton and get rid of that Huddersfield bus co. nonsense too. I hate all those ex london crap boxes they keep aquiring, saw a dual door decker on the 757, I don't think they bothered refurbishing it, just a repaint.

The Omnicities are still in Menzies Aviation silver! Complete with the dents they got when in use with them. Yes they do just paint over the dents...

I saw one of their omnicities with what was obviously a cracked rear indicator lens,and what did they do to repair it? Yes they taped over it with silver duct tape

They say you don`t know what you`ve got till it`s gone.I`m sure the people who use the ring road bus would say that too.

The ring road serves places that no other bus does too, plus gives places like Rothwell and Swillington links with places like the White Rose Centre & Cross Gates. Centrebus are really screwing it up..
