Stagecoach have retained the 287 with New EVs and won the 225 from GoAhead. As much as I appreciate the information (which I really do), must tender results be posted here in operators threads rather than waiting for the full set of results to come out? They are out but dates are missing. Overall this is going to keep happening the news is out. |

Thanks for publishing full details; personally I prefer the 'big-bang' contract award 'fix' as opposed to drip-feed. |

I appreciate that but like borneobus I think it’s better to wait until the whole list is ready then drip feed. I don’t want to sound ungrateful so apologies if it’s coming across like that |

I don’t want to sound ungrateful so apologies if it’s coming across like that I agree however cannot stop people from posting unfortunately. Most intranets have the information available bang on midday. I’ll refrain from doing this in future as a note. |

Tender Result section cant be viewed without account whereas operator page can, dont know why its like that but it is |

I don’t want to sound ungrateful so apologies if it’s coming across like that It’s a tricky one because although whilst it probably is preferable to wait for the big announcement (I’m indifferent either way as long as I see the info), the people posting them on receiving the announcements aren’t actually doing anything wrong because it’s public info handed to them that’s allowed to be shared. It’s a very different story when is insider information is leaked, wasn’t meant to be shared and illegitimately accessed, which I can recall sadly has happened a couple of times on here |

Tender Result section cant be viewed without account whereas operator page can, dont know why its like that but it is Sensitive information. Although fake tenders do not get posted, last year when a fake set of results was posted it went viral. In fact a few days after it was posted someone sent it to me on What’s App and I made them aware it was fake. It’s a good thing that board cannot be viewed by just anyone… |

Is there any reason the 379 Metro City EV's are numbered in the 45xxx range yet the W11 ones are 67xxx ?

They are both on the 339 and it is more distinguishable with the different colour seating for the 67xxx range the 339 buses have. Does Stagecoach seem to have issues with the information displays on new electrics more than other operators. I have yet to be on a 58 or W11 with one working. The 276 has issues with the destination display. I dont think the last 86 I took had the internal display working either. It may be just randomness. The new Go-Ahead routes seem to be fine. |

I've only been on 1 86 where the Customer Information System hasn't been working so must be pretty random I have been on a few 366s where the iBus system has been on sync with the direction of the vehicle |

Stagecoach put 86186 into service for the first time today with the LED displays not working.
This really should not happen.
All the customer information needs to be fully operational every day that a bus is in service.
