The routes, which I like, are bus services of 76, 77, 78 and
79. Absolutely marvellous service, exactly after 2 minutes on Aspley Lane.
Whenever you step out of your home there is a bus waiting for you. I just love
this route.
The route I hate is 44 and City Link 2. Absolutely not
reliable, it’s better to walk rather than catch these buses.
Currently, I am using 28, 30 and 31 for my travel. I am not satisfied
by the time gap between the buses of 28. They are not frequent and not
reliable. Especially on Sundays, not all people have holidays on this day. Some
people have jobs. So, Sunday timing for 28 is not good, talking about 30 on
Sunday is ridiculous.
At evenings and night times where it is too cold outside in
winter we have to wait for the buses too long.
Bus service 40 and 41 are less frequent and at peak times
too small bus capacity.
Travelling to West Bridgford is a nightmare. The travelling
time is too long and bus capacity is too less.
The buses with less capacity have less ventilation, most of
the time in winter all of the people altogether shut the windows. Makes it
difficult to travel because some of my family members feel suffocation and when
we open even only one window, people come to fight with us. Sometimes I feel
scare to let my family travel without a male counterpart because of
misbehaviour from other passengers.
Sometimes when it rains or when all of the windows are shut
the bus stinks, especially early in the mornings when we catch the bus, the bus
smells like someone was smoking weed.
And sometimes I have experienced very strange behaviour from
the drivers. They empty the bus from the passengers at the bus stops mostly in
the city centre and go somewhere and sometimes they even go in the gambling
shops. Leaving a long queue outside of the bus. This is what I have experienced
at 28 bus stop at the City Centre outside Victoria Centre.
I also don’t understand what taxis have to do at bus stops.
It’s very irritating, blocking the way for the buses.
I don’t know why there is no bus service to take people
inside Hyson Green, Forest Fields, Radford Boulevard and Middleton Boulevard.
There are local buses but no buses to travel directly to City Centre.
I think there is a need of more bus stops between Beechdale
Bus Stop and the Crown Bus Stop because people coming from Ainsley Estate and
near by residents they have to cross a dangerous and major cross road to catch
28 at Beechdale. There is no stop in between Beechdale Bus Stop and the Crown
Bus Stop, making people to cross the road irresponsibly putting themselves and
motorists at danger.
In other places, there are some small gaps and sometimes
there are big gaps between bus stops. Some bus stops are unnecessary and in
some places where people need bus stop they have to run to catch one like
Beechdale bus stop, it’s dangerous.
I think there should be discounts all year round for
students on all routes of NCT with a valid student ID and on NUS card, when
students buy tickets on the bus and on bus card top-ups.
