tezza86 Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 I'm shocked at the 56 last bus on a sunday from interchange been 19:50 many older residents rely on this bus when returning home from the working mens club/pub on duke street to get to the top wybourn especcially on a sunday.

dink Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 I think its kinda funny that the residents of Halfway got a petition on the go and got local MP's involved to get the 120 buses to stop terminating at Streetfields, due to noise pollution, and now the 41's have changed their routes to terminate at the same place that local residents managed to get the 120's to stop using Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerfan Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Can anybody explain in proper English what route the 75 and 76 will take Shiregreen and not Sheffield Lane Top ?? etc If one of them goes up Sicey Ave they are not only competing with the Stagecoach 88 (not exactly over sub scribed) but against firsts own 47/48 route ?? It seems to be a funny situation. But then its First Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy C Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 75 is still going the current route via Lane Top and will go to High Green. 76 is changed to go via Shiregreen, Sicey Avenue to Ecclesfield Morrisons. Thats as much information as has been published by First so far. http://www.firstgroup.com/ukbus/yorkhumber/southyorkshire/service_changes/index.php?item=5901&show=1 http://www.travelsouthyorkshire.com/timetables/julybusservicechanges.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheff5555 Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Yep, they are at it again. For years I have used the 76 bus from High Green to Low Edges. It's a pain, it criss crosses across Sheffield but at least (most of the time) I don't have to change, it takes me door to door. NO MORE !!!!!! now the 76 is stopping at Ecclesfield, and the 75 will be going Batemoor to High Green. I was waiting 25 minutes for the 4pm from Low Edges last night - now it will be another wait wherever I choose to change buses. STAGECOACH... ARE YOU LISTENING..... MAKE THE 88 HIGH GREEN TO BRADWAY OR LOW EDGES - PLEASE !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
